    3" Lift
    Hello Friends,

    Just wanted to introduce myself and my new Tacoma. Originally I wanted a truck for the daily things that would require such a vehicle but as I got more and more into it I was like ... I really like this truck... so I went to a auto shop and said "make my car look aggressive". They were like "are you sure you are in the right place"... wouldn't you rather drive a Prius.. LOL (all joking aside, they were great)

    So lifted the truck 3" and put the Nitto Trail Grapplers (I know should've gone with Terra) with some Fuel wheels under it. Aside from making the drive horrible, it looks so awesome and I am really enjoying this ride which is surprising to me (my other ride is a 2015 M4, seen in the background).

    So I am going to install an adjustable UCA so the car is a bit more manageable... other than that I am very happy with it...

    I also installed a StealthBox and upgraded the sound system, more picture to come..
    Any suggestions for a newbie here please don't hesitate..

    what's making the drive "horrible"? the lift or the tires? I got a '15 that want to put some rims/new wheels on, thinking of lifting it about 2"-3"
