    Hey guys! I am going to pick up a 12 TRD sport Tacoma in a 4x4 Longbed configuration in Nautical blue later this afternoon from my work. It's my first major new vehicle purchase and I am really looking forward to getting this beast. I have been looking into all the theft items that Taco's are real notorious for and noticed the cat converter is a big one, so is the tailgate and the gas.

    I wonder if toyota has finally placed a check ball down the fuel filler neck yet? Can anyone chime in on that?

    I am big on improving shortcomings on vehicles and this one will be no different to me. It's fun. So expect a lot of activity from me here and a lot of contribution to the site.

    Here's what I plan on doing to the truck, eventually, lol:

    Front skid Plate (OE replica with the TRD stamping on it)
    OEM tube steps
    OEM tailgate extender
    Here's the big one, a TRD supercharger with a URD 2.6-2.8 pulley on it, maybe someone can tell me which would be best :D

    Anyways, hello hello hello!

    And a picture for a welcome

    Well thank you for the warm welcome guys! I just got my side steps yesterday and they are awesome. I want to get the skid plate for it so bad, from what I saw there was a guy on here selling skid plates with the TRD logo stamping on it. Anyone know what's going on with that?
