    2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-road
    Hey everyone, just signed up for the forum after buying my first new vehicle and first ever Toyota. Dropping in to introduce my self.

    I've always owned used rigs, sometimes two at a time because one would always quit working as the other started to. This Toyota is my very first new one, and it's amazing! I went with the 2017 TRD Off-Road with 41 miles on it driven out of the lot.

    I spend a lot of time out in the woods with the 4x and the Tahoe I had just wasn't cutting it anymore. This v6 hauls so much better (two gears do make a difference!) and the ride is overall smoother.

    Who can get over the new car smell - insane!

    Anyway, thanks for having me here!
