    I just got my Tacoma few months ago, a beautiful SWB. It's an 06 TRD Sport with plenty of character (scratches here and there) but it's been through enough everyday use and and a couple road trips, so it's earned my trust. It's my first truck, and I've got the itch for some customization. Like most teenagers, I'm likely going to treat it like a money pit. I've already started with the stereo and a few minor fixes, but I'm sure I'll be on here often asking for advice regarding everything from looks to mechanical upgrades. I may be mechanically inclined, but I know practically nothing when it comes to vehicles, so I've been reading these forums everyday since I bought it 4 months ago. I'm learning more everyday about these trucks, and I hope I won't get too annoying with my questions!

    I know it's a little late for a new member post, but I had an excuse to wash and take some pics. I just got the kb voodoo tailgate cap. Went on tight and looks good.
