    I'm relatively new to posting here. I have used this site as a resource numerous times before making this purchase.
    What I got:
    2011 tacoma sport access cab
    V6 automatic
    black tube steps
    hood protector
    265/70/17 duratrac tire upgrade
    West Virginia dealer, 29,350 out the door.

    Since it has been snowing, I've been really impressed with the overall handling.

    The truck was on the driveway prior to being washed, and yes the blue has been cleaned off, just illustrated they were new.

    it is 4x4 v6
    I chose not to get the JBL audio system and instead have installed my own subwoofer system since the 7 inch sub it would have come with was not adequate to me.

    Tube steps are the black OEM from the factory.
    I decided against a 3 inch lift initially, since the tires fit fine with no rubbing.

    I highly recommend the duratracs, well worth the money. And the 265/70R17 fit nicely on the sport models.
