    Hola everyone,

    My name is Chris from the Raleigh Durham area. Just got a Cavalary Blue Tacoma - looking forward to doing some light modifications. Planning on getting more into camping and what not. I'm coming up from a Civic LX daily driver.

    My baby is a 2008 R32.

    Love the offroad culture as well.

    Primary interests:
    Photography, Surfing photography, outdoors (duh), Euro cars, big fan of EDM and DJ mixing and that sort of thing too. Anything audio visual related is interesting. MotoGP. Old school 80s BMX.

    Current plans for the truck:
    1552 HD wheels
    Bedliner
    Bed cover
    Bull bar
    TRD grill w/ orange LEDs
