    New member. I have wanted a Tacoma for years and just kept putting it off. my dad bought a Toyota pickup brand new in 1989 and drove it for years. I wanted one ever since.

    Finally bought a 2017 TRD OR DCSB last week. Loving it so far. Looking forward to learning more from the forum.

    Welcome to TW and Congrats on your new truck! you will love reading all the useful (and some not so useful) info here. You will get lots of ideas .. ideas that will encourage you to open your wallet and buy stuff to add to your new truck :D Have fun !

    ps. great color choice, i love my silver sky metallic. I am a bit OCD about keeping my vehicles looking good and this color does not show dirt easily like some darker colors

    Hide it, allow us to hold your debit card for you. Ha!

    Seriously, very nice looking truck. Love the contrast of the black flares and is that a pinstripe I see? I can't totally tell. Either way, Well Done!
