    Yo, s'up fellow Tacomites? Checking in from YYC up north, in a very wintry Alberta, Canada.

    Just bought my first Taco after previously owning an '04 xTerra that was starting to cost way too much to keep reliable. I'm hoping the new truck follows my Toyota good luck trend that started with my '04 Corolla that's still ticking along happily at 375,000 kms.

    I do a lot of off-road and gravel road driving throughout the Rockies (see my site at explor8ion.com) so the first upgrade I'll be paying for is 17" tires / rims.

    Bought the 2016 TRD with only 10,000 kms on it and full Toyota re-certification and warranty. The previous owner apparently spent around $10k on some body mods including the custom chrome / aluminium matte black hood and decal removal. I love the look of the hood but wouldn't have paid that much for it! Toyota didn't charge me extra for the mods, so I'll take them. :)

    Glad to find this site and hope to share many adventures!!

    VERY good looking Tacoma. Welcome!
    ...just went to your site and loved it. Thanks for the great pics, and stories. We're pea green with envy as we sit at a boring PC and sell parts in the hill country of our slightly too warm state of Texas.

    I tried to leave you a personal attaboy saying keep up the good work at http://www.explor8ion.com/comment/reply/ but couldn't get past your captca code. The font was too cryptic for me and I gave up after three attempts. Ha. Uh, that was a little embarrassing - but welcome and thanks for sharing none-the-less!!!!

    Thanks! Sorry about the captcha code - I've been having so many dang hackers trying to get past it lately that I had to bump it up in complexity. I tried backing it off a bit to see if well-intentioned folks can get by now. :)
