    Howdy everyone,

    Just thought I’d post a quick hello to let y’all know I’ve rejoined the Toyota family. I brought home a 2017 Tacoma 4x4 TRD Off-Road double cab in super white this evening. Feels like coming home. I traded a nice F150 for it (which was a great vehicle itself but just didn’t hold its value), but I’m happy to be back in a rig that can actually go off-road to my hunting and fishing spots.

    The line of ‘Yota in my family begins like this:

    -1977 FJ40 (my Dad bought and which I grew up in...traded in 1985 for a new-fangle vehicle called a “mini van”).
    -1989 4Runner Deluxe, white (me)
    -1995 4Runner SR5, dark blue (wife)
    -2008 4Runner SR5, dark gray (me)
    -2008 GX 470, black (wife)
    -2014 Tacoma TRD OR DC, spruce mica (me, traded for the F150...it was the V8 that got me)
    -2017 Tacoma TRD OR DC, super white (me)

    Well...not sure what else I should post. I’m planning on keeping this one fairly stock. No big mods for now (they all say that don’t they?), but I might splurge on the bronze TRD rims...

    I just love this rig. Toyota finally pulled out all the stops on this one. I mean...I have butt heaters. Who doesn’t love butt heaters? And yes it gets cold in Arizona.

    See ya’ll out on the trail or in the forums...

    Wow! Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I really didn’t expect that. But, that’s what I like (and missed) about the Toyota community.

    I hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year’s out there.
