    2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro
    Hi everyone I just purchased a brand new 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro and am so excited to have some great adventures in it. I am going off to college in the fall and wanted a more practical vehicle that was also amazing offroad. My previous vehicle was a 2013 Scion FR-S so this is definitely a very different kind of car which I am excited about. I am looking forward to adding to my Tacoma as well in the future.

    I really enjoyed the FR-S overall but it definitely needed more power in my opinion. I put on new tires right away (Pirelli P Zero's) which helped tremendously with acceleration and grip.

    Oh for sure i'm going offroading soon with some of my buddies who have Jeep Wrangler's. I feel like the Pro might need some better/bigger tires in the future though.
