    20190528_221126.jpg 20190528_221139.jpg A big shout out from the C/U area of Illinois to the good people of Tacoma World! I've been on this site now for a couple of months, hanging out in the background and doing some serious R/R. Well last night I finally decided to bite the bullet and picked-up a 2017 TRD Sport 4x4 crew cab. Like with all newly acquired vehicles, I've got a lot of plans for this lady.

    Thank you for the well wishes.
    :)
    This is virtually the second Taco I've owned. The first one was a 98' Pre-Runner (2.7, 2X4), that was virtually stolen out of base storage (NAS JAX) while I was underway doing war games for two months. Only had that truck for two weeks.
    Lets hope my luck with this 17' Sport is far better.

    Here's a pic of my dark Taco today at work (just got my windows tinted, and Lord I can't wait to replace that chrome cheese grater of a grill... just say "NO" to chrome).

    Today an upgrade to the lowbeams/fogs to LED'S.
    It was a virtual night/day.
    A very worth while upgrade.
