    hello from germany
    my name is björn, living in oststeinbek near Hamburg.
    viewed the forum for a few weeks now and just got around to doing the registration process.
    driving a taco in germany is very "exotic" cause in europe you can only buy hilux.
    to get information or taco parts isnt easy (now i have TW)!!!
    but why do i buy the taco?
    i love the v6 engine/automatic transmission(not available in the hilux) and the interieur !!!
    sorry for my bad grammar:rolleyes:

    did you change the wheels on that rugged trail? from the factory, they are the same wheel as that but in black.

    Welcome to TW from FLorida! I was lucky as a kid to spend time in Germany, we lived in Zweibrucken (near Frankfurt) and my brother was born in Stuttgart i believe. Loved every minute of it, my parents were army so we got to see lots of Germany.

    i wasn't talking about the KTM. the rugged trail is the edition of tacoma you have...noted by it having the mountain offroad sticker, it being an 08, and having the off black flares. normally they also have the baja wheels you have, but in black and not silver.
