    Hey there Tacoma World Members! I just picked up my Tacoma today and couldn't be more stoked about it. I've wanted a Tacoma for a while now and finally got my hands on one. I was previously a Jeep guy and decided to make the switch, I was definitely addicted to modding my Jeep so I'm looking forward to getting started on my Tacoma. Here's my new pride and joy.

    Cool. Going to be different than your Jeeps that's for sure. More space, more comfort, little less off readability.

    I'm going to have to get used to the longer wheel base, but I'm liking the space and comfort a lot.

    Believe it or not but my jeep has never let me down, but there's a reason I switched.

    Thank you sir!

    Let the addiction begin! Thank you.
