    After lurking on this site for about a year, I figured it was time to formally introduce myself, and to say thanks to TW & its members for the wealth of information/funny pictures.

    My name's Daniel and I split my time between the 323, 310 & 951 area codes for home, work & visiting the folks, respectively.

    I picked up my truck new in December of 2010. Here's how it sits today, just hanging out in the hood, with 65K miles.

    Thanks for looking.

    Thanks for the welcome, everyone. I lucked out on the color . . explained to the dealer that I was looking for the following: regular cab, 4-wheel drive, and manual transmission (nothing against automatics). The nearest one they could find was in San Diego, and it just happened to be that color. I've been happy with it ever since.

    Unfortunately, being a 2nd gen, I don't have the manual transfer case so I probbaly won't be of much help. I do wish I had the stick rather than the electronic knob, though. Maybe someone else can chime in. Good luck.
