    Hey everyone, just introducing myself. I just got home from the dealership. I traded in my 2000 s10 for a 2012 Tacoma Base today. I'm a minitrucker. My showpiece is a 2006 GMC Canyon bagged on 20s. I just bought the tacoma as a daily driver and only plan a few minor mods like a static drop, wheels, grille, and some window tint. That's the plan for now anyways, but I can never leave a perfectly good vehicle alone so who knows. Anyways, there's my introduction and here are some pics of both my trucks.

    The more I look at the truck, the more I'd love to see it layd out, So maybe one day after the warranty is up and payments are done I'll put it on the ground but as of now it's my daily.

    How the roads down in Newport News? One of the main reasons i don't want a slammed truck is because of the potholes in DC. You got any problems with pot holes down there?

    The roads aren't too bad. Newport News, Hampton, and the rest of "the peninsula" are fine. Virginia beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, and the rest of "the southside" are horrible
