    2017 Double Cab TRD Off Road 4x4
    Hello TW! Got my 2017 TRD Off Road in August. It's my first Tacoma and my first 4x4 truck. No stranger to off roading, but never with 4x4. As of now it's bone stock other than the sweet all-weather floor mats. I've been doing a lot of research lately on upgrades, mainly a lot of drooling. Since I will be on a tight budget with this truck, I will be going for functionality and purpose orientated upgrades (tires and recovery equipment). uhhhh... what else... I'm 33. I live in Santa Clarita. And I like things and stuff.

    Welcome, you're on the right track with new tires. I replaced mine the week I got the truck. Rear Locker, ATRAC, and a good set of All Terrains will get you far.

    Eventually I'll do a lift but not anytime soon unfortunately. Any extra money I have usually goes to MTB parts. Upgrading this truck is going to be a slow process.
