    Yes, it's nice to be able to haul something home from the store for a change. When I had the Jeep, I couldn't haul anything, kinda felt like it was useless at times. I was really shocked to see it only having a max of 350lbs of tongue weight. Especially since I was building a overland trailer for it. I ended up finding a engineer site that helps with weight displacement and axle location. Now that I will be using this Tacoma to pull the trailer, I'm sure it will pull it way better than the JK would of. I was originally looking for a long bed Tacoma trd at first, but couldn't find one with all my options.

    Murdered out JK, definitely different!! Yep totally agree about not having any room. Yeah I been surfing this site for awhile now and been reading some good information. Figured it was time to join, I'm hoping to find some locals to go wheel with. Most of my friends are Jeep owners and they don't wheel with the Tacoma crowd LOL.

    BTW nice Tacoma, I almost bought White until I seen the Army Green in person. Only bad part about a dark color, always looks dirty. Also the Toyota paint seems to chip real easy, 2500 miles on the truck and had a rock bounce off my hood in 3 different spots. I can only imagine what AZ pin stripping gonna look like hahaha.

    Thanks, I first went with a black TRD Pro copy cat wheel and the Toyo RT tires, but it didn't give it that aggressive look I wanted. So I spend the money on those Bronze Method wheels and browsed all the MT's out there. I always ran those Mickey Thompson MTZ P3 mud terrians, but wanted to try something different. So I ended up going with the Cooper ST Pro MT Load E tires and actually love the way they look, plus they ride really smooth for a aggressive tread.

    I saw the green and really liked it but felt it was too close to multiple black vehicles I have owned in the last 15yrs. Wanted a change and white is the complete opposite of where I was! Funny you say that the green shows the dirt because that's all I see now on my white truck

    If I wasn't in Boston you'd have someone to go riding with! Enjoy the truck. Looks great!!
