    hello everyone.

    I just got ride of my old Dodge and got a 2006 Toyota Tacoma. It's a 4 wheel drive 4 door Tacoma, and with about 126,000 miles. The body is great, no rust, runs smooth, and just very happy with this. I always wanted a Tacoma, I just think they are a beautiful truck.

    I wanted a TRD one, I couldn't find one that didn't look all beat up, or in my price range.

    It does need little work. The antenna is broken, muffler is a little loud, and I would like to replace the radio. I was looking at the JVC KW-V820BT (has Apple CarPlay) for it, anyone have this radio?

    This truck is just fun to drive, and can't wait to get some new tunes in this thing.

    Looking forward to reading some forums and learning more about this awesome truck.

    Welcome to TW! Kudos on dumping the Dodge. lol

    All you're really missing by not getting a TRD Off-Road is a rear e-locker. But ARB can fix that with an air locker install. :D

    That Dodge was costing me too much money. I always wanted a Tacoma since I got the Dodge, but things were different back then. Soooo I see I'm going to have to look into that ARB air locker (my wife might kill me, but I did buy her a 2016 RAV4 :D). I do like the hood of the TRD off road, but I know I can get that too.
    The radio I hope to have in a week. The silence driving to work is going to cost me, because I will be coming up with more ideas lol.

    THANKS!
    White, Black, and Sliver look good on vehicles (I think). My wife has a black Rav4, so I'm glad I found this white Tacoma.
