    IMG_5994.jpg I picked up my 2016 Tacoma about 3 weeks ago. I wanted the manual transmission so my dealer had to trade with another dealership. I traded in a Lexus 02' IS300 sport cross(automatic). That car was great but I don't miss it.

    I grew up driving stick shift and wanted one bad. I looked seriously at getting a Golf GTI or R, but now that my family and I live in the country I couldn't justify a hot hatch. I looked into a Tacoma and was pleased to see a manual transmission offered on a well appointed truck.

    So, I enjoy TW and see it will be a useful resource. I have pulled the TRD sticker off, removed the black vinyl between the windows, added factory chrome exhaust tip, and removed the front air dam. I plan to add running boards for the kids, get 265/70 17s when the stock tires "need" replacing, and will replace the grill "only a mother could love" with a TRD Pro. IMG_6070.jpg
