    Hi everyone, I'm new to the site and very excited to be getting a used but new to me 2013 Tacoma. It's an automatic v6 access cab in black with 150,000 km's on the clock. I've been doing some reading on here and was looking to put together a list of things to do right off the bat. Was hoping some of you can chime in with any suggestions you might have. So far I have these for starters
    -change the diffs and transfer case fluids
    -pick up a grease gun and hit the 5 zurk points on the drive shaft
    -tailgate mod to secure it
    -undercoat it (likely with fluid film)

    Sorry didn't answer question, but, id say replace/re gap spark plugs and check brakes if they haven't.

    Heh, thanks for the welcome guys! Pictures coming soon ( I will need to learn to post pictures so be patient lol). Never thought to check the plugs so thanks for the heads up. As far as brakes they were done a few months ago which was a plus.
