    hi everyone...
    Figured I'd creeped on here long enough it's time to say hello. Purchased my first taco two weeks ago after my daughter wrecked my FJ. Never thought I'd like the taco even half as much as the FJ but I've been proven wrong. im definitely digging it. I'm still struggling with the loss of FJ but I can't imagine trying to fill her shoes with anything other than another awesome Toyota.

    So... Hello from Ohio, and thank you for all of the information I've found on here helping me out as a new taco owner.
    So far she's got new shoes - Mickey Thompson 265/75/16
    Go rhino lightning rack
    Westin light bar
    and some blacked out bits ;)
    I had a lift kit purchased but returned it after driving the taco around for a few days... The stock suspension was just so nice... I'm not quite ready to change any of that just yet, and since I've decided not to wheel her for a couple of years... Really is no need. As you might be able to tell from my FJ, I wheeled her pretty good and keeping up with maintenence from that is just not something i have time for anymore.
    Anywhooo...Meet beefcakethetaco ... And expect mods in her future .... Like lights! And yes, I passed my FJ trail teams badge onto the taco. Big shoes to fill and an honor she better be proud to wear ;)

    After her first few mods ( grill, rear bumper, dipped wheels until I can afford my sidebiters again) image.jpg
    After the rhino rack install. - really like this thing! Excited to get some lights up there!

    Thanks again all! Love checking out your trucks and finding so much helpful information as I get to know my new one!
