    Hello everyone!

    Long time lurker and have been holding out to register until I actually got my truck. Ordered a 2016 Tacoma in April and it finally showed up in August. The 4 month wait was long but worth it.

    First truck I have EVER owned always been a Civic guy and decided it was time for a change. No rice burner stuff just a stock Civic Si I've had since 2006.

    Ended up with a 2017 Magentic Grey Tacoma DCSB MT 4x4 TRD OffRoad. I think the wait was due to the manual transmission and moonroof combo.

    Anyways, will post some pics once I take some. Ordered the SR grill to replace the black chrome grill, Morimoto 2 stroke led bulbs for the lows and Morimoto XB Led Fogs.

    My 2000 Si was my wife's car she bought in 2000. She sold it to me to help buy her a new race bike (2010 R6). So I took it over and turned it into a garage queen.

    Lots of Az guys on here. We wheel a lot, have meets/mod days, parties. Most of us are good friends outside of TW, but wouldn't be friends if it wasn't for TW.

    Just remember, the truck was expensive.

    The mods for the truck will bankrupt you!

    I know the feeling. Within 2 weeks I was already starting to rip my truck apart and put a stereo in it. Within the first year I added quite a bit of mods to my truck and it just keeps going.
