    Hey all, first time Taco owner. Picked up a 20 TRD Off Road with millennial theft deterrent the other day.
    Always liked Tacos and was starting to look into getting one but the drive train and trim package I wanted is super rare around me. Then, one popped up.

    Loving it so far. Coming from always owning Honda sedans and coupes, it's a familiar feeling seating position that I appreciate.

    Not sure what my first mod will be other than a tailgate pad for bikes.

    Congrats on your first Tacoma @EJunlimited,

    That is a great looking truck and we would have to bet that the forums will be a great place to help you get mod ideas, tons of informative members and vendors on the site!

    This might be a controversial take, but if I were to start all over on a build I'd re-gear my stock truck as the 1st order of business - that's how much I appreciate the improved drivability.
