Hello from the south east!

After 15 years and 330k miles my 2001 xterra 4x4 popped a head gasket and so I started the journey to find a newer vehicle.

I knew I wanted a Tacoma but I was thinking I would hunt around eBay for a 2nd gen. In the mean time I found a dealer in TN that rented Tacoma’s so I went up for the weekend to play with one and the rental was a 2017 TRD 4x4 Double Cab Magnetic Gray with 500 miles on her. After about 2 days of driving around I was not ready to give her back so I ended up buying the rental.

Now I’m the proud owner of my first Tacoma and excited to join the community !

…..also bought a motor to swap on the xterra
