    Hi all! I've always loved mid-size rigs and have wanted one since high school. Believe it or not, the Tacoma has always been my dream truck. Only took me about a decade later (from my high school days) and a few road blocks here and there, But hey, now I can say I'm a true owner! Super excited! Anyhow, I'm looking forward to meeting all of you on this forum. Cheers!
