First Taco and loving it.

Hello everybody, as the title states this is my first taco. I was usually a jeep person, but the wife said I cant get another one until later because i spend too much money on them. Well that's how i found this loophole, lol. Anyways my name is Lawrence and I live in southern Oregon if theres anybody else from here by all means lets hit some trails. Anyways on to the meat and potatoes, I purchased a 2016 TRD Sport, access cab, long bed. She only had 24k miles on it, so not evem broken in yet. I got lucky in the previous owner had aleady installed a 3"inch left with king coil overs, and rear king shocks with icon bump stops. Along with that they threw in a Voolant Cold Air intake. Now on to what I've purchased and done so far; my first purchase was a used RCI bed rack but it was for a short bed so i got it for pretty cheap, second purchase was my Prinsu roof rack (which made me regret not getting a 4 door taco), but i put it up myself and thus far no leaks or issues. I just received my mini 6 spod, and waiting still on my 42" roof light and heretic ditch lights. Also bought a single ARB air compressor, and installed a 3TPAM for the interior. Bumpers and winch will be coming along eventually, and have gotten molle mounts for the rear where i have my traction boards, hi lift jack, rotopax fuel cans, and my axe stored and attached.
Currently im trying to change out some hoses in the engine with mishimoto silicone hoses, but its proving difficult figuring out the correct ones to change, along with the vaccum hoses. My goal for this truck is to basically turn into a mobile base station when the inevitable civil war/apocalypse happens, lol (kidding.....kinda). Oh, and i also have a Tuff Stuff hard shell RTT coming hopefully next month (wouldn't recommend them, customer service is atrocious), they've sent me the wrong product not just once, but twice, and have postponed shipment for the tent two times now also despite having already forked our almost 3 grand. Now, that should about cover it, but im also wanting to learn more and get advice from more experienced folks. Thank you for reading

Thank you, im currently in the process of installing my Genesis dual battery system and running into problems with it being right up against the oil filler neck. I've read in some places you cam just take that off and put the cap back where the base of the neck was. Or will i just have to deal with it for now until i purchase a reck relocation kit?

Welcome!

How do you like those Icon bump stops?

 

So far i have no complaints for them. I haven't exactly taken her out yet and made use of them, but I will say compared to all the jeeps I've owned the tacoma rides much smoother than they ever did.
