    Hi Everyone,
    I love the info in these forums. Here is a brief intro. Grew up on the East Coast and now living in Utah. On a bit of a whim, I decided to sell a camry to look into getting a truck. Last Tuesday, I sold the camry and by Thursday found a used '14 TRD that fit the bill. My first mod was removing the dealer sticker, but I've already started researching more. We have a jeep, so I kind of caught the 4-wheel bug spending some time enjoying that vehicle.

    My first trip in the Tacoma was to Moab over memorial day to camp and see some sights with the fam. I mostly parked the new car, but we enjoyed a few trails in the jeep. I'd love to get back down to Moab to try things out and explore the area. My time has now freed up for the Summer as I transition companies. Eventually I need to find a new gig, but I'm not in a rush after spending the last 7 years establishing a business. I hope to find some trips/expos to join with other members. I'll keep my eyes peeled for groups or other Utah Tacoma owners that may be planning trips.

    I currently live in Salt Lake, but have a small, rustic cabin between Zion and Bryce NP, so I plan to use the Tacoma to explore those trails and do some cabin work this Summer. I know this is a bit of a long intro . . . . looking forward to participating in the community. Here is a "before" photo of the Tacoma TacomaPhoto.jpg

    Thanks all. Now the tough thing is going to be to stagger the mods/updates. Already drooling over some of the ideas here . . . . :drool:
