    Hi there Tacoma World! I've driven a Toyota Tacoma since I was in high school. I started with a 2002 Tacoma back when they still had the 4 cylinder engine in them....i put over 270k on that truck before I upgraded.

    I just got this guy yesterday and I cant wait to add my own personal touch to this truck and make it more me :D

    [​IMG]

    my first goal is to sell the cover that came with it, the previous owner apparently bought and installed one that was the wrong size, and color...... and to get a little more aggressive looking tire on there so it doesn't appear as ghetto.

    I have been thinking about it, but im not sure. I like them because they are pretty unique (20" factory toyota alloy wheels) but i also like the black powdercoat look a lot as well. I think what im going to do is get rid of the cover, and the running bars and get some Nitto Terra grapplers on there and see how i like it. If I dont, ill probably sell em and get some different wheels.
