    Hey, I've been a member since April '08 but haven't made a post yet, figured I finally would... I've been reading these threads constantly and you guys help out so much this is such a knowledgeable resource for us Taco owners.... A little about me.. I'm Andrea, I'm 20, I'm one out of two girls i've ever known who own and are capable of driving a Tacoma well.. (I'm sure there are a ton of us out there, I just need to meet some!!) I hail from Denver Colorado and enjoy everything about this state, and pretty much I'm just looking forward to modifying and using my tacoma as much as I possibly can and this site is the BEST place to find help with that. I'm finally going to start posting questions and (if I ever have something that may be helpful) maybe answers, can't wait to get started!!

    Now about my truck... mostly stock for now which i HATE...
    She's a 2008 TRD Sport 4.0L V6 auto dbl cab lng bed (not the best choice for offroading i am aware) in Speedway Blue. The only things I've gotten to do so far are a 3" OME lift and some 1" spacers. I'm looking to change that soon with your help :)

    Well thanks for readin my blurb and i look forward to learning from y'all!!!

    -Andrea
