    Hey All,
    Figured I’d pop my newb cherry and post. Coming from the Audi world, Looking to get into 3rd Gen Prob TRD Off Road 4x4, going looking over the next few weeks. Trying to do a little recon on 3rd Gens, things to get avoid etc. Gonna hit the search bar to see what I can find but if you feel so compelled to post would love the help. Excited to dive in to the Tacos.

    Welcome- someone told me to avoid 2016 and aim for 2017 or newer... not sure if there were proven & specific reasons for that. I generally avoid a first model year run of any vehicle anyways.
