    Hello TW,
    I'm new to the forum and new to trucks. I've always been a car guy (mostly Mustangs and Subies), but have admired the Tacoma from a far for as long as I can remember. I sold my '10 STi while my wife was deployed and drove around in her '11 Outback while she was gone. I love the space, cargo room and ground clearance so when she got back I started looking at trucks once again. Long story shot, I picked up a used '08 Taco Sport 4x4 double cab, long bed in speedway blue 2 weeks ago. So far I love it! Every time I have a question about the truck, the answer pops up on his forum, so I decided to join. Thanks for all of the great information!

    Welcome aboard! I didn't know what a "mod" was until I joined this site.

    This sight has saved me a lot of money already in potential wasteful performance "mods". I think this truck will be the first vehicle that I actually focus on how it looks and rides rather than making it "go fast" like I usually do. :)

    You have all the desert to play in. The "go fast" part will come. :devil:
