    How the truck stands as of 10 October 2020.

    10OCT2020.jpg

    Hello! I'm Scott. I bought my first Tacoma roughly a month ago and wanted to start a thread documenting my ownership. This is the first vehicle I've ever been excited about owning. Everything before this hasn't been anything special:

    96' Camry - died at 310k miles (2009-2010)
    2003 Buick Regal - wrecked [My favorite vehicle up until my Tacoma] (2010-2014)
    2009 Chevy Cobalt - ate a deer at highway speeds (2014-2015)
    2013 Ford Focus - Transmission failed and on its 5th clutch (CVT). Sold it to the dealer for KBB excellent condition [Thanks COVID-19]

    and now

    20200526_162011.jpg
    My 2017 TRD OR! 25k miles and picked it up for 29K OTD.

    Since purchasing my truck I have admired it near other Tacomas
    20200527_095711(1).jpg
    I've parked it next to this,
    20200611_082442.jpg
    and I've even been a good coworker and helped someone move.20200626_114050.jpg
    20200625_132735.jpg
    I've also done some slight "modifications" although nothing significant:

    Complete badge/sticker removal.
    Black bumper caps.
    Bed stiffeners.

    20200701_141906.jpg
    20200706_152441(1).jpg
    I'll continue to post pictures of my adventures (once I have some) as well as other Tacoma's I park next to.

    Hello Meatloaf and welcome! I love mine... as do most. When I bought mine.. I thought.. yeah... this is an awesome truck... it is good without any upgrades...I was so wrong. Enjoy the forum. There are a TON of smart and awesome people here. I don’t post much, but everything I have done to my truck is thanks to the TacomaWorld people. (Not all of them... it is the inter web after all....). Congrats and welcome!

    I'm excited to work on my truck, but I'm also excited to do it over time and enjoy the build. My little brother is an amazing mechanic and when I buy new tires I'm going to drive up to him and we'll put the new tires on.. and a lift...

    Should've parked in the background like the Tundra so I could've gotten the Tacoma in the picture too. Anyways, static at work got a fresh coat of paint.
