    What's up TacomaWorld, just wanted to introduce myself since I'm new to the boards.

    I picked up my 2016 Tacoma DCLB TRD Sport 4x4 this past Saturday; which is my first Toyota. I've had 3 Nissans and 2 Chevy's in the past (not in that order), and most recently traded my '12 Fronty for the Taco. Been wanting a Tacoma for some time but never wanted to drop the coin for one. Finally bit the bullet and went with the new model. Hope to learn more about my new truck from the knowledge floating around on the boards.

    Thanks guys.

    I'm ready for the suggestions, but not the modding... my modding addiction goes towards my bikes. Lol.

    Haha. True, but the only major things might be wheels and tires... and that's down the road.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm gonna use the same setup from my previous truck.:D

    Probably gonna hit you up for one of those rear window bars and gonna check out your build thread when I get the chance.

    Thanks. After seeing the inferno, quicksand became my second choice but it was hard to find an inferno. I have no regrets getting the quicksand though.


    Haha. The add ons started days ago, nothing major though. WeatherTech mats on order, fwd bed rail on order, installed OEM side steps (found on CL), and got my windows tinted yesterday.


    Street/track only for me so nothing special with my setup. Ordered a fwd rail for my bed so I can mount the CCR Sport tie down hooks that I had for my Frontier, Baxley chock, and CCR Sport tie down hooks on the side rails. I could use the OEM hooks in the front but they're too low and the straps would get in the way of other things.

    I can also mount my fork mount on the fwd rail for my mountain bike.


    Thanks.


    Thanks, as I mentioned, it became my second color choice after seeing the inferno but I'm glad I got the quicksand.
