    Hey there, Tacoma drivers and fixers.
    I recently snagged up a sweet, New to me, 07 Tacoma V6 auto, A retired guy figured he needed a 2017 and let this slip into my hands. It seems he took great care of this truck, a note pad that he gave me documented everything from oil changes, repairs with part numbers, recall fixes to Every Single Gas up, even down to miles, gallons, dollar spent, date and Mpg. I'm told engineers do this.

    Well my first fixes, I added a new Battery, plus had to fix a front wheel bearing a couple weeks back, he had fixed one prior. I hear that's common with 150,000 + miles on these. The exhaust cross y pipe needed a fix for a rust situation, $30 at my local muffler shop. I switched out the Serp Belt this morning, I also did the Trans Svc, thanks Fortech. There are a few other things that I think need attention though, I'll get to them soon.
    Fixed Pics.... thanks RedRed.
    1. Tint windows, check

    2. added a Tyger Bar and Loud Air Horn, Wolo Bad Boy type

    3. Bestop

    This site has helped me many ways already, thanks for now and in the future.
