    This sort of a new/old post, I bought my Tacoma back in 2018 it was a 2017 trd off road fully loaded with all the shit I wanted and was still brand new only 22 miles yepp just 22 miles on it and I got a great deal! I had been driving around a rusted, clunking, loud, held together by hopes and dreams F350 I had acquired from an old job and I mad that sob last nearly 10 years. I saved and saved and now own a Tacoma! I couldn't be more excited to be putting this all together now, after years of multiple jobs and time spent squirreling money away! I live up in Flagstaff AZ, so if you see H4RAMBE (RIP) plate driving by say whats up!! I talk overland anytime! I am new to this whole online and posting and threads or forums or whatevers, just wanna share and find some dope camp spots/adventures!

    First thing I did was add the TRD pro front grill, I just like the look so much better then the chrome grills they come with. I have already built a simple bed rack for my RTT I got at overland west a 23zero (weekender 72). I have tinted the windows, added the typical weather tec floormats, and even found a sweet little coin tray off ebay. I added a volant (with powercore) cold air intake. I have also swithched out the tires/rims for a set of BF good KO2's on 16inch bronze method 701's. I added the black inserts for the TACOMA letter on the tail gate and have the black badges ready but have not put them on yet. I put a black line of vinyl on the tailgate (helps feel less like im scratching the crap out of my tailgate when i open/close it). I have added ditch lights from caliraised with the oem "ditch light" button. There is soo much more to do I look forward to keeping up with TW and will be posting pictures of the above mentioned stuff so the truck will look a little different then this picture here! Some things will be for sale as i am in line for a GOFAST camper #719
