    Nice truck and its just broken in:)

    First mod is tires. I drove a gen 1 tacoma through 10 Maine winters and tires to get you where you need to go is a must. I relied on my truck to handle anything so I could work and play. Those in the photo look good for next summer on dry pavement. Have fun with the backroads of Maine in your Tacoma. This site has lots of good modification tips and tune ups for the DIY type.
