    Picked her up on Monday.
    I had a 96 Landcruiser that I traded in as it was about to let go. Already put 600 miles on her this last week..
    I think I'm going to keep the mods simple. Tint and a drop in air filter.

    I have been having a blast in this thing so far.

    Debating if I want to take the decals off but they are starting to grow on me.

    I'm living up in Santa Rosa so the far North Bay

    Thanks for the welcome.

    I had a Subaru STI a few years back that I got carried away with so this time I figured if I got the Baja I wont need to change a lot of parts.

    Also when I purchased the truck the special Red TRD emblem was stole off the rear. The Dealer said they would order a replacement but it took over three months due to the fact the guy didn't know what he was doing.
    I called last week and they informed me that Toyota requires the VIN to order this part since it is a special part only made for the Baja Edition and not available to people with out this model
    .
    Now the truck is once more complete
