    Merry Christmas, and happy new year.
    My name is Josh, I live in the Austin TX area.

    Long-time Toyota fan, first time Taco owner. We got my wife a Trail Team FJ Cruiser a couple years ago, and when the opportunity presented itself to upgrade my Nissan Frontier, she insisted I get a Tacoma, and there was no argument from me! When I came across a 2018 Black TRD Pro, I couldn’t pass it up.

    Been reading the forums here and there while playing with the truck, and figured I’d join once I had some valuable input. Looking forward to years of some good fun convo and driving!

    Haha more hits than Tyson!
    Only thing about black is they show dirt so quick! Still worth it though. The desert sand color is pretty cool, so is the blue. My heart is black though.

    I really like the special TRD colors but feel like I'd get sick of them, black never gets old. But it does get dirty instantly...oh well
