    Hello y'all,

    So that's the limit of my North Carolinian accent, I'm a Brit, born and raised in London, that's moved to Charlotte in 2018 and as we don't really have trucks in the UK I took the opportunity to dive right in and bought this 2018 Tacoma 4x4 SR5 XP.

    Here are few pictures from the last year:

    Freshly polished

    Its normal heavy load

    Over looking the Blue Ridge Mountains

    A snowy weekend, the first time the 4x4 was used.

    Just a couple of planned modifications:
    • Blacked out badges and chrome bumper caps
    • Change grille, still not sure for what yet...

    Welcome to tw and nc. About 4 hrs east of you. Been to London twice. Cool trips. Knew a guy in havant that drove a f250 long bed quad cab. I asked him how he drove that thing thru a roundabout. His answer... Don't. Drive over them.

    Cheers.
