    Time to make some improvements on my 11th Toyota truck. 2012 Tacoma AC TRD 4x4. I've always liked having just a little more grunt than the rest. I've had a couple SC 3.4 vehicles and now am working on acquiring a SC for the 2012.

    Magnason(formerly TRD), don't like what I've read about problems with the included tuning. I find it hard to believe Toyota would be willing to provide a tune for a non Toyota product.

    Started with a 81 4x4. Always loved the reliability. Some really shitty seats along the way, even the buckets but I'm fine with the 2005+ TRD seats. Limited models had decent seats but they were... "limited"
