    20170712_130814.jpg 20170619_190744.jpg Hey everyone - thought I'd better introduce myself after creeping around these threads for the last few weeks.

    I'm Mike. I'm a mechanic by trade, and so when it came time to buy a new truck I decided to go with something that I knew I wouldn't have to waste much of my free time fixing, haha.

    2017 Taco TRD Off Road, DCSB auto trans. MGM. I would have bought the 6M, but they aren't available here in Canada with the Off Road package at this point.

    Thanks Moondog!

    Currently planning 2.5" lift, 285's and some bed storage solutions.
    I'd planned to get a set of SCS Ray10's, but I've since learned that they're made of unobtanium, lol

    Thanks for all of the great info Guys!

    Yeah those Rays are hard to come by but a few on here manage to surface with them so keep an eye out for them.
