    2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road
    Hello All! Ive been wanting to get back into overlanding for a while, after being pretty active in the late 80's and early 90's. I have a 2003 Dodge that I've built up over the years. Unfortunately, there's not much room for a 3/4 ton diesel on the trail, literally and figuratively! So I've been keeping an eye open for a late model Tacoma.

    This week I found a 2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road locally, and picked it up yesterday. So I'm beginning the journey of spending countless hours surfing the net for the best for me mods and accessories. In the meantime, I'll read the posts for tricks and tips, to make the trip easier!

    Welcome to TW from central VA. I'm jumping down the same rabbit hole with this you are. There are some decent trails with some camping in the western part of the state. Congrats on the truck!
