    Hello from deep in the woods of East Texas. I bought my Taco in November. Happy as an engineer with a new calculator ;). I'm looking forward to catching up with you folks on some mods.

    The previous owners either had running boards and a security system added or the dealership added them. A press of the red button turns the "beep" off on the security system.

    I ate there for the first time in years two nights ago!!
    I was just looking for info on the 05 Taco's. Trying to see if there were any bad things I needed to know! I've already crawled underneath and checked the motor mounts. They look like good welds to me and I'm not going off-road. That's what ATV's are for!
