    Greetings All,

    Just picked up my brand new 2011 Pyrite Mica TRD Off Road Tacoma (6 Spd of course ;)). So far have put 1000 miles on it in the past week and absolutely love it! :D I already have $3000+ in part on order and cant wait to get to work on it! My previous vehicles as follows (in order of ownership).

    2002 Chevrolet 2500 Diesel (black)
    2006 Subaru STI (dark grey)
    2006 Dodge Mega Cab 3500 diesel (white)
    2008 Subaru STI Hatch (white)
    2007 BMW Z4 M Coupe (white)
    and now the tacoma

    Any DIY advice?

    Ill be lurking around on the forums quite about and ill stray away from asking obvious newb questions ;) ill do my searching first.

    Regards,
    Jeremy

    Only had 1 day out in the dirt. Any LA area guys can point me in the direction of some good trails or off road areas?!?!

    Nice! I have a 07 YZ450F like it for the most part but kinda want to try a Ktm out. Never owned one but have heard nothing but good things about them.

    Right on. Yeah I have ridden YZ's and I must say, with my obvious lean to KTM aside, I really feel the KTM is much more solid a bike.

    Let me know how it goes!
