    Just bought my first Tacoma, a 2011 Base V-6 w/ 6-spd manual. I'm pretty stoked!
    I had an F250 for many years, but sold it for a commuter car. Found I couldn't live without a truck, but didn't want to go back to 8mpg.
    I'm planning a mild lift with 31" tires, winch bumper, and eventually a supercharger. I got spoiled for power by my Mustang.

    Welcome!

    I think you might be mistaken about it being a base model. Appears to be an SR5.

    @irayfz6 - you are absolutely right! Turns out, the previous owner had the window sticker in the owner's manual. SR5 with towing package. I'm super happy to find that!

    I didn’t need them to get in or out of the truck, so there was no need to keep them on. The only purpose they served for me was getting my pants dirty every time I stepped over them.
