    WOW! Beautiful truck. My first post and I had to comment on your truck -- good choice. Is the skid plate part of the package or is that something extra you had to negotiate?

    Not much on the 07 yet. 18 is gone, but was a greata truck. TRD Pro grill, Gator FX3, Homelink mirror, Black out badges & exhaust tip, Remote start. Future TRD exhaust, skid plate.
    Holy Moly! That is a sharp looking truck.

    you people with these new 2012s need to quit making me want one, I only have 5 payments left on my 07!!!

    That is a super nice color.

    Cheers!

    Thanks! I got the skid plate from my local Toyota dealer. I bought it after I bought the truck and installed it. It's expensive for what it is but I really like the look of it.

    Thanks for the compliments everyone, I really like the color too. On the downside it's as bad or maybe worse than black to keep clean and the scratches really show. Even with that being said I'd choose the same color if I could do it again. :)

    Your truck is awesome. I ordered the same except the upgrade. I like the stock Black tube steps but really like your chrome steps more than most I have seen. I plan on getting the skid plate as well, kinda tops it off. Those 18's look better everytime I look at your truck and hope I don't regret not getting them. The tires you put on in other pics look great as well. Have you leveled it or any plans to do so or lift?

    Well tyvm and I know you will love your new Tacoma. Congrats!

    No plans to level as I tow a trailer for work and/or usually have some type of load in the bed. Pet peave of mine when trucks ride lower in the rear.

    I got the lift out of my system with my 4runner and have no plans to lift the Tacoma.

    Actually, I am very content with the way the truck looks and feels after the tire swap and few additions I added. Hope that feeling lasts for at least awhile ;)

    I have a SB DC Nautical blue on order and my sales guy steered me away from that upgrade package with the 18" chrome.
    I got the TRD Sport Extra Value Package which is the same options but with the 17" alloy wheels with p265/65R17.

    I did liked the idea of the 18" but after reading up on these wheels I think I made the right decision

    Nice pics. Can't wait to get mine!
