    Hello everyone,

    Still riding the high of purchasing a 2015 Tacoma as my first truck. It's been about a week of owning it, and I wish I had done this years ago! I think I got a pretty sweet deal--only 5K miles, one-owner, clean CARFAX, etc. The truck is immaculate.

    Anyhow, I'm looking forward to learning all that I can about how to treat the Taco right (so to speak) and get the most out of it here in beautiful Colorado. Thank you to everyone that contributes to these forums!

    You made a mistake by coming here.... may the mods never end! It's the hotel California really, you can come anytime you like - but you can never leave. With that said, beauty truck and welcome! Start off with a 3" lift, total chaos upper control arms, tires, wheels, bumpers and skid plates! Maybe some ARB lockers and regear for the larger tires?

    Thank you! That's quite the mod list...for the time being I'm only able to afford "ain't skeered--no fear" window stickers and extra air for the tires... ;)

    Thank you! I got super lucky with the color, but I've seen a few of the exact same truck cruising around town, minus the ridiculously handsome driver, of course.
