    Hi all. I'm a first-time Toyota owner with this 2009 Toyota Tacoma being my first ever brand new vehicle. Previously I owned a 1985 Chevy S-10, a 1988 Honda Accord, and a 2003 Dodge Stratus, so you can see I'm not yet loyal to any one make or model. But, this baby might just make me one:

    Well, I haven't planned it all out yet, but I do know I want a tonneau cover and I kind of dig the signal lights that can be installed on the side mirrors. I also plan to swap out those strap-on DVD players for built-in models so we won't see so much unsightly cord in the rear seat... all the better to keep the crumb snatchers (and I say that with all due affection) from getting tangled up and yanking something out, lol.
