    Got my first Tacoma 2 months ago (came over from an F-150). Been impressed with them since my father bought an SR5 back in ‘91, and it’s still on the road.

    Excited to be a part of this community.

    One of the mods i made that i will never regret is changing the gears on my truck. The transmission are six speeds. What i understand 5th and 6th gear are overdrive. I thaut with the bigger tires it was going to make my taco slower on take offs. I was wrong it moves much quicker better acceleration and hoaldes 5th and 6th gear with out hunting gears. I recommend changing the differential gears. This was with stock tires. Haven't gotten around to check fuel average with the new wheels and tires. Mytoy3.jpg Mytoy2.jpg Mytoy3.jpg Mytoy2.jpg
