    Hello all,

    I just bought my first Tacoma, it's a 2017 silver sky metallic SR5 with just over 11K miles.

    Though this is my first Tacoma, I'm no stranger to Toyota's. I've owned and worked on a lot of their sport cars from the 80's and 90's. I'm partial to MR2's mainly, I've owned six of them since high school and three of them were track cars.

    I'm pretty stoked on owning a Tacoma and hope to contribute to the community.

    I'll throw a pic of my Tacoma just for craps and giggles.

    You got me beat. I wash my truck 2-3 times a month in summer, 2 times in winter this far. The last wash of the month I tend to strip the old wax and sealant off and start with a fresh compound, wax and sealer.
