    Hello all,

    Just wanted to introduce myself.

    I come from the world of sport compacts (in other words, I've never owned anything with more than 4 cylinders).

    I'm new to the truck scene. But, I've always loved the Tacoma's. Forums are great places for technical advice and for buying parts. So I hope I can get a lot out of being on Tacoma World, and make some friends (no enemies, please!) while I'm on here! So far, it's a great site!

    I purchased a 2011 Magnetic Gray V6 Double Cab TRD Off Road this past Saturday Sept. 3rd, btw. I'd post pics, but I'm sure you've all seen that before:).

    Chat with you soon!

    -Muttley

    p.s.- I'll be sure to put the "Search" feature to use before posting a question:D

    Whoa! Rad! Well I definitely still like talking Subaru! Glad to know there's a few Subie owners on here.

    I'll make sure to keep my posts Tacoma-related, though:)

    Welcome from NY, only things I miss on my last car, VW Passat wagon, are the monsoon radio and heated seats. My daughter says she will swap with me. Tacomas are way better. This place almost has me convinced to put some goodyr wrangler duratrac tire on to replace pefectly good but whimpy dunlops.
