    Hey guys,

    I recently purchased an '07 Prerunner SR5 and love it so far. I've been searching the site for a few weeks now and am enjoying all the posts and info.

    I've been wanting a truck for some time but never quite needed anything full size so the double-cab Tacoma fit perfectly with the family. I never saw myself as getting anything other than a 4x4 but the lack of severe whether here in SC really didn't require the dead weight and cash. However, I do find myself wishing I had the TRD OR package as I love the comfort of knowing I can get out of a sticky situation if needed.

    I will be using the truck as my daily driver but would love the ability to get out and hit some trails, do some camping, trips out west, etc. After looking at many posts I'm kicking around the idea of a selectable rear locker such as ARB but not sure if it's worth it. Many people claim the SR5 is a great foundation for bolt ons and it looks like that's the direction I'm headed unless I find a great deal on a 4x. Let me know what you guys think and feel free to throw some mod ideas my way.

    Thanks,
