    Hello all, I was poking around the site and decided to join up. Looks like a great community with a lot of great advice. I am currently 30 months into a 3 year lease on a 2016 Pro Sport Dbl. Cab that I like very much. I was thinking of buying it out, but after crunching some numbers, it does not appear to make sense. If I were to buy this truck, I was anxious to start up some mod's.
    Mostly suspension / wheels and tires, different running boards, different front grill, etc...
    After owning several 4-runners, and a few other assorted SUV's, I am glad to have found the Taco.
    I look forward to gaining knowledge on the forum over the next several months, turning in the lease, and going all in on a left over 2018 or 2019, which of course will need the mod's as well.

    Thanks for all the good info folks!
    Hand

    Welcome to Tw! I was the same way. I was just waiting till I had some miles on my truck and then thought to replace with some mods. Didn't make sense to replace new parts with new parts.
