    Finally got a chance to clean up my 2015 SR, going on 2 months since purchase. This color is awesome in the sun. Mods so far include: TRD PRO grille, NFAB side steps, CURT trailer hitch, LCE header, 20% tinted windows, OEM fog lights, OEM intermittent wipers, under door LED strips, bug shield and window visors. Next up is a 2" Bilstein 5100 lift, then going to add 1985 SR5 stripe package for a retro look. I like this truck SO much better than my '13 red regular cab! Here's a few pics next to my other toy, all original 1985 Celica Supra.

    I haven't gotten my Tacoma, yet (maybe next week), but I did have a black '85 Supra that I sold when I married my first wife in 1988. Since that marriage lasted a grand total of five months, five days (two months of which she was on location working on a movie), I've always felt I should've kept the car.

    Live and learn...
    :D

    I've been really happy with it so far, but I still have stock wheels and tires. The truck is much more fun for drive. I'm sure once I add bigger heavier wheels and tires it will be less impressive. I only drove the truck for 3 days before taking it in for the supercharger though, it was just part of the decision after my last truck was an f150 and the tacoma felt underpowered to me.

    If you're going wheeling, bring a recovery strap.
