    Hey guys, always been a fan of Tacos, and I figured I'd join seeing as i will be purchasing a 2016 trd off road as soon as they hit the market. V6, manual, access cab, and the longest bed I can get with it. I guess I be a guinea pig for the new Tacoma... anyways, good to be here.

    Thanks guys, can't wait to see the new truck in person, as far as I can tell, the biggest point of contention with the new truck is the extended nose. Personally I don't care seeing as I will defiantly find use for the space. My ultimate plan is to have a rig to go camping anywhere I want. I can guarantee I will be posing an extensive build log...

    Thanks, we'll see how it goes... only thing I'm not too excited about it the lack of aftermarket support there will be for a year or so, most of my plans are easily possible with complete diy-ing though...

    Welcome, not much for you to learn till some others start buying the new trucks in the fall. You'll only have one bed option with an access cab. Believe its the 6 foot bed.

    Yep, I had a DCSB and hated it. Couldn't load my dirt bikes without the tailgate down. Love my DCLB. Welcome!
