    Another sharp looking Tacoma. Enjoy it, I am very satified with mine and think up excuses to just get out and drive around.

    Did the same thing when I bought new in 2010. Have the same feeling all over again with the 2012. Love how I start it up and my Bluetooth automatically plays my music on my phone where I left off.

    Yah. I was pissed when it wasn't an option in Canada when I got my 2010. Stoked that I have it now. When you coming to the mainland to join a trail run OZ?

    Quick picture I took the day I brought her home. 2010 4x4, super happy with the purchase, bones stock but still beautiful to me.

    Going to get AVID Sliders, might get crazy and powder coat them same color as the truck. Up in the air on a front light bar or bush bar haven't seen one I love. Going to pick up a set of Weather Techs and some seat covers for the interior, any suggestions on seat covers? Still surfing for them.

    Mods in my sights are, Bush Bar / Light Bar, Shell top with roof rack, roof rack for the cab. Black rims and larger tires. Any suggestions on tires?

    I have had my 2012 mgm for about a month now and love the color But.....
    I always seem to have watermarks on it. What do you guys use?
    I just tried Ice spray wax with anti watermark stuff and it worked for a little while but i want something thatlast alittle longer. I dont think you get the full effect of the metalic properties of the paint unless it is clean.

    Rinse. Wash with a quality car shampoo (I use Adam's). Rinse. Blow dry with leaf blower. Wipe down with Adam's detail spray and a quality microfiber towel (I use one towel for top half and a separate towel for lower half and wheels). I haven't ever found a product that will eliminate water spots without wiping it down afterwards. Leaf blower will get water out of all the spots you can't get with a towel. Detail spray makes sure and gets any remaining water spots that may have dried before you get it wiped down.

    I never thought about using my leaf blower. My neighbors might think I am crazy, but now I want to try it. I use Mcguire's Auto Detail spray and microfiber towels too. Detail spray works very well, but hey, let's face it...rain = spots on our MGM's.
