    2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road
    Stock for now
    Just took home my 2017 Magnetic Grey TRD Off-Road yesterday and just trying to get familiarized with everything. I'm not new to modify cars, but have never done much with my trucks. I previously had a 2010 4.6 Tundra (should've gotten 5.7 for sure), and traded in a 2014 Ram 1500 to get this instead. My Ram was low optioned and the open diff was driving me nuts. Didn't want to dump money into it so I opted for something a little different.

    I live in the suburbs about 40 miles southeast of Philly and would like to learn about some light offroading (haven't ever done that with my trucks) if anyone knows of anything.

    Any links to good places for aftermarket accessories (suspension, aesthetics, performance, etc...) would be appreciated. I ordered a gator tri-fold tonneau cover for now, but could really use some guidance on a quality, yet affordable, bed cap. Would like to maybe add a bed rug and use the bed/cap for additional dry and securable storage since the interior is significantly smaller than the full size Ram.

    Thanks, Jason
