    Hey, I just purchased my first truck and it just so happens to be a 2018 TRD Sport. I couldn't be any happier right now. But as you might have guessed Im a complete newbie. This is the first time Ive ever even driven a truck. I signed up here to learn a few things and maybe get a few tips from the good people of TacomaWorld. :) As for mods I dont plan on doing anything major yet maybe just a few paint mods to start off! any advice from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
    Here is a pic of my Taco.

    You want advice?

    Run.
    Run fast.
    Don't look back.

    This place will seperate you from your money faster than a 8-ball toting hooker.












    In all seriousness...welcome to the party.
