    Hello! I'm new! I just bought my first Tacoma. It's a 2018 TRD OffRoad and I'm stoked. It replaces a 2011 Frontier that I adored, but I've always wanted a Tacoma. I joined up to learn more about modifications (I'd like 17" wheels, better off highway tires, and a leveler. Maybe a light bar too!). This seems like such a vibrant forum with loads of info. Looking forward to learning all kinds of things!

    I bought it Friday so I had it out first thing Saturday doing a bit of exploring. I don't typically take pics of trucks, but I'll start taking more. :) IMG_1826[1].jpg I love it!

    Ok, so I found something I'm not so thrilled about - the cupholders are too small for a Nalgene bottle. What gives, Toyota?
    Anyone know if it's possible to swap these out or customize it?
