    Just traded my 2010 F15 FX4 for a 2021 Tacoma Sport TRD 4WD last week, 47000 miles. Lovin it so far.
    About me: 76 yrs old, married 57 years, one daughter, 41 yr LEO retired 12 years ago, live in East TN on a 28 acre piece of Heaven way back in the woods. US Army, 91B Medic, Vietnam Vet 68-69 Tet Survivor twice - 13.5 months in country, 8yr TN NG 91B-91C.
    No Questions at this time other than What Tire pressure are you running? Door say 29psi. The Toyo Open Country P265/65-17 tires it came with have good tread but were aired up to 38psi.
    Don't want to over or under pressure the tires so That's my Question?
    Still reading the manual. I'm sure I'll have more question later.

    PS: In 69, 1st day out of the Academy, foot beat with FTO DC Metro. I was in a shooting
    and made two arrests. One went to the hospital for surgery thanks to my M10 S&W, the
    other I called a Paddy Wagon from a Call Box and rode in to the Precinct. Capt. met me
    at the booking door and Said "Book'em Dano" and I've been Dano ever since.

    Nice truck—— welcome and thank you for your service (too bad there isn’t a Jack Lord opening title sequence shot I could insert here). :)

    Got my Degree from UT Knoxville. Had an office there for a few years. Make it a habit to stay out of
    Knoxville anymore.;) Stay away from cities everywhere if at all possible. To crowded and smell bad.:thumbsup:
    At least, Knoxville ain't Nashville or Memphis. Wouldn't catch me dead in either. Bad enough I had to
    frequent both for training. Being OIF/OEF, I'd think you had enough crap to last a lifetime yourself.
    At last Knoxville isn't the Sand Box. Just a short hop to Gatlinburg and the Smokeys to air out your lungs.:D
    Thanks for the welcome. Be safe.
