    Hey everyone I'm new to tacoma world and am very excited to have access to this HUGE knowledge base (hopefully i can add some useful information as well in the future, i have a background in low voltage and electrical systems). I recently purchased a 2018 Tacoma TRD Off-Road DCSB and absolutely love it. Im familiar with a lot of the OHV areas around me from dual sport riding so i took the truck immediately from the dealership to one of my favorite areas, Indian valley and stony ford in California, heres some pictures from the first trip out.

    That was typed with a smile...and you’re correct in pointing it out. I immediately zoomed in to see how deep the water was, too!

    Amazing!

    Thanks for showing folks how to have at it stock rather than fretting over bigger tires, spiffy wheels and unneeded lifts.

    Like a cool fall breeze your post it is!
