    Hey Bros,
    Im a totally nube. I just signed up and now im posting here, and Just wanted to say Hey.

    I love my Tacoma. I have Had it for about a month. It's my first Toyota, and my first truck. I just sold a 06 Suzuki GSXR, and wanted to get into something safer and reliable. Im graduating from college in the next few months and am in some debt, so i cant spend to much flow on the truck (cause I feel lucky to have found one in my budget). Im totally coachable, and I try to be humble, so if you can give me any input, Im super open. So far I have only been stuck twice (once in the snow on the way back from Reno, and once in sand at the beach):p

    Welcome~ UCLA!!! Good school. Congrats on completion (almost). I got so many years ahead of me. :/

    You can do mods to your truck for pretty cheap. Look at the cheap mods section under mods and tutorial at the top of the screen. I think you'll like what you see.
