    Hi all,

    I've used tacomaworld in the past to sway me toward a new Taco instead of a Chevy Colorado or a Jeep. I just put a down payment to secure delivery of a 2014 DC Off Road short bed in Magnetic Gray Metallic. I take delivery in a couple of weeks. Only options I went with from the factory are tow package and fancy radio. Immediate plans are exhaust and some type of bed cover, either cap or tonneau.

    I live in Brooklyn, NY and even though I'll pound more concrete than dirt, I think the OR is going to be the best choice from me. I have family on a farm in Michigan, and our little 07 corolla wont even make it down the dirt road to the farmhouse in the winter. It barely gets home in the snow as it is.

    Happy to be here and learn more about this truck.
