    Hey guys, new here...bought my 2017 Blue Tacoma SR5 the day after Christmas and been lurking ever since! Loving this forum, very helpful! I'm not only new here with a new Tacoma, but I'm new to trucks in general...always wanted one but never had one until now so sorry for any newb questions!! :)

    So far, I've only tinted the rear windows at 15%...tonneau cover, trunk lock and reverse LED lights come in next week!

    Definitely want some different Wheels/Tires but trying to figure out what I can fit with stock suspension. I have a chance to get some TRD Pro wheels right now but not sure if I want to buy them yet...probably mainly because I need someone to buy my stock ones too, so if you're interested, hit me up!

    Well, see you guys around!

    Welcome to the forum! I see the mod bug has already bitten you. Your best bet is to bury your wallet and stop reading this forum!:rofl:

    Nice truck!

    Did they let you drive it out of the showroom? Some places let you do that.
