My first new vehicle (Longest INTRO thread)

Welcome to TW!

 

Hi everyone!
Im pretty new to the off-roading world.
Recently added suspension, wheels and tires to my ‘19 TRD Sport.
I've been trying to learn as much as I can about different mods and builds.
So far it’s been fun!

I actually just drive out to CA from NC and back this summer.
I met a lot of friends and off road enthusiasts out there and I’m hoping to find some areas out here in the east coast to explore.

I’ll keep this short and sweet but I’m excited to learn more and I’m happy to be here!

 

Welcome Erika

 

Welcome to TW! Truck looks great!

 

Hello all!

I have been using this website as a briefing for projects on customers vehicles and my Mother's 15 Tacoma for years now...
The time has come that I have FINALLY bought my own Toyota! Thought I might as well make an account here since I am scrolling through pages and pages for hours on end anyway

I am very excited for the many years of being bored because I do not have anything to fix on the 'ol Taco! Only thing I have planned for now is a Caliraised 30" lightbar with custom mounts that I believe I found linked on this forum not to long ago. Other than that... Boring white with stock rims is good enough for me

 

Just took delivery of my new ride. #trdbro Came from a 2017 Ford F-150 Platinum and decided to downsize. Needless to say, I’m new to TW.

 

Welcome to TW!

 

Great shot and I love that color. I ended up getting a black one but this would have been my second choice. Congrats.

 

Road trip sounds awesome. Thinking about doing the same. What kind of mpg did you get?

 

Well for now i am getting 19.2MPG

 

You had me at it's a manual

 

Bought my Tacoma TRD Offroad with the 6 speed manual transmission 2 days ago and couldn't be happier. I was driving a 2017 Subaru WRX prior to getting this truck (still love my WRX), so a huge change in so many ways. I'm an avid fly fisherman and will be towing a small drift boat in the spring. I've owned manual transmission vehicles my entire life but never a truck. I was elated to see that Toyota was one of the last auto manufacturers to still offer a manual when I was looking. One test drive was all it took to hook me. I chose the TRD Offroad because I wanted the differential lock. I live on top of quite a hill and have no doubt my Tacoma will get me home safely as well as to offroad fishing destinations. I chose the Magnetic Gray Metallic.

 

Welcome and congrats Robert

 

Just joined TW after lurking for a few months. Finally pulled the trigger on a new silver 2020 a few weeks ago. Still missing my 2004 4Runner from time to time, but the manual in this truck is a ton of fun.

Hello World! Just got this beauty... 1985 Toyota Grand Sport by Ranger. I got all the original manuals and maintenance paperwork with it, including the paperwork from the axle recall and replacement. Original everything... but it all works so far!

 

Welcome to the forum Schatzi

 

Just got this beauty... 1985 Toyota Grand Sport by Ranger. I will probably have lots of questions. I got all the original manuals and maintenance paperwork with it, including the paperwork from the axle recall and replacement.

 

Portland downtown has these everywhere.

 

Hey all! New here too.

Recently sold my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek for a 2020 TRDOR DCSB Cement. Finding Cement here in Colorado was such a pain. But I was dead set on this color and am glad to have finally picked it up. On day one my wife and I cut down some old growth in our yard and made 2 waste yard runs. On day two I was at Lowe's picking up lumber for a shed build.

I've had the front windows tinted and clear bra installed (dealer freebee), plus the bed mat. Other than that, I'm gonna swap out the headlights for the OEM LEDs (just got my wiring harness from Mike, via this thread) and have been thinking about changing the wheels to the TRD Pro's with Wildpeaks—my wife hates the stock OR wheels —and a TRD Pro skid. Mostly going to keep it OEM, for now.

 

Welcome Svendough. I was also, dead set on Cement, waited 2 months finally got it and put it right to work. I am also considering the PRO wheels. Post up a pick if you get them mounted, love to see how it turns out.
