    This is my first vehicle new off the lot in my life. 2012 Magnetic Grey Metallic, 4x4, 4cyl, 5 spd, base. I was going to get the SR5, but could not justify the extra money for a few extra bells and whistles and color matched fenders. The black on grey suits me just fine. I love driving it and I look forward to years of reliability. The only mods I'm considering is switching to intermittent wipers and adding some window vent visors. Other than that, I'm happy with it the way it is. I guess a true member of the forum actual OWNS a Tacoma!

    Satoshi, debadged, rear view mirror bracket, tail gate hose clamps, trimmed mud flaps.

    I think that is why he plans on doing that mod. If you mean no Tacoma has intermittent wipers, may want to rethink that. My 2011 does.

    Thanks everyone. I wish intermittent wipers would become a standard feature like air conditioning has. Not sure why it hasn't. It's a quick, fairly inexpensive mod, so I'm ok with it.
