    Hello all,

    I just purchased a new 2018 Tacoma TRD Sport. I happened to get my favorite color red, although its fancy name is Barcelona Red Metallic. This is my first truck ever, I have always had smaller cars. So its nice to have something bigger that I can feel comfortable in. Having the 4WD will be nice in the winter here in Colorado.

    I thought it would be a good idea to join a forum and get to know all about my vehicle and get to know all of you in the Tacoma world. Any thoughts of what I should do to my truck first?

    Thanks for all the help and support!

    Haha you don't like my wheels? jk. I was thinking about either lifting it at some point or just get new wheels with an offset so it sticks out a little. I want it to look kinda aggressive.
