    So.....after being an owner of multiple Ford and GM trucks I never considered a Toyota. My friend works at a Honda dealership and told me about a Tacoma that had a ton of mods. I fell in love and now I am the proud owner of a 2009 Tacoma TRD. So far I love the truck and I know I will have some fun with it in the near future!

    Welcome to the club! Word of advice, delete your tacomaworld account now or say goodbye to any money you have left. :D

    Looks quite modded already, got any other plans for it?

    Thanks guys!!! Between how I bought it and the few things I’ve added it’s pretty modded. My next plans are 35’s and a regear. I’m also wondering if adding Bilstein 5100s can give me enough additional lift to fit 35’s without any rubbing.

    I appreciate the warning about spending the rest of my money....lol
