    Hi guys,

    Stephen here, I own a stock 2003 Tacoma, my third Toyota truck. I'm no longer into mudding or rock climbing as I got boring with age :D (almost 40 years old) but I still enjoy a nice ride in the trails and being able to go wherever I want while hunting.

    I intend to make some basic mods on my truck and that's the main reason why I'm here. I'm already learning from reading some posts and I think this forum will be helpful to me.

    Talk soon.

    Welcome to TW, even if you ain't gonna spend big bucks this forum kinda draws you to spend time tinkering on your truck. Nice truck BTW :)

    Thanks guys,

    Here's a few pics of my first Toyota, 1986 Pick up, 22R engine. I had it for almost 10 years and sold it 6 years ago. Pics were taken just before the engine was rebuilt hence the spare engine in the box.

    Welcome bellero,

    Not really much into mudding and that stuff myself but I love my Tacoma and keep in in good shape. Joined looking to do a little modification and advice for my Taco's well being.

    Welcome,
