    Hey everyone,

    I'm excited to say that I am a now an owner of a 2006 Tacoma PreRunner with 120k miles. It came from the dealer with a lift and some after market tires, however I am unsure of the exact specifications. That will be something to figure out as I get more familiar with the truck.

    I started looking for a truck because I love camping and mountain biking, but my Mazda 3 just wasn't cutting it off road... After doing some research, Tacomas seemed to be the number one choice of many people. I can't wait to take it off road and see how it goes!

    Anyways, here's the truck. DSC_0013.jpg

    Haha Big Momma has a secret... Well, I would like to change to a suspension lift (I'm guessing that's the better one based on a quick look around this forum) in the future. That will be once I pay down the truck a little more! As of now, I'm simply happy that this is much more capable than my Mazda 3!
