    Hi everyone! Been lurking around here for the last couple of months to do "research" on the new Tacomas (who am I kidding, I already knew I wanted one), and I picked up my TRD sport DCLB this morning. Needless to say I'm loving it so far, but getting it in my garage (super tight space) was very difficult for the first time. I live in SF Bay Area, & we don't have tons of space here. I'm sure I'll get used to it. Look forward to meeting all you folks, & being part of the community.

    Lol, sorry guys. I am trying to upload a picture, but I am horribly technologically challenged. Can someone explain how to do this with an iPhone?

    Ok, never mind. I figured it out... My gf took all of the pics today, & she's out on a girls night out. Took this one in carport. Illustrates how tight the parking situation is.

    Thanks guys! quick question: is it normal to go out and sit in my new truck every 30 minutes, or should i seek a 12 step program? Starting to feel like a stalker of my own truck!:eek:

    Perfectly normal, I recommend driving around the block a few times as well.

    Congrats. Sitting in your truck. sniffing the seats. laying underneath and staring at the drivetrain. Popping the hood and molesting the motor is all perfectly normal. Nothing we all haven't done.
