    Hey everyone,

    My name is Tippin Wilson, and I am currently deployed to the Middle East. I am coming home in a few months, and I am ecstatic to finally be able to afford my first Tacoma... I have been "obsessed" with the ide of making myself a fun, reliable rig that I can play around in the mud and dirt with, and still look classy going through town in, and the Tacoma is the perfect vehicle for the job. I am looking for some pointers though, and it would be pointless of me to go anywhere but right here to TW to talk to the ones that have had the joy of driving and building their own Tacoma's for themselves. Right from the source. So if anyone would be willing to spare some time, I have a few questions for you guys regarding certain brands and things like that, that you all would advise me to look into for when I come home. Thank you all for your time, and have a great day.

    Very respectfully,

    SGT Wilson, Tippin

    btw: I'm the one in the middle of this picture holding the cup.

    Thanks for the fast reply Steve! I appreciate it! I was a huge Dale Earnhardt fan myself growing up as a kid until he passed.
