    Hey guys just a new member checking in. FL Tacoma owner I've owned my 2018 Double Cab V6 4X4 for about a year now. In that time I've added a few fun things to make the truck more enjoyable. 1.5" Front leveling 265/70r17 tires, K&N Intake and MBRP Exhaust. Interior wise added some paint and color matched lettering along with a better sound system. Most recently I added the Orange Virus Tune which I thoroughly enjoy and will post more on in the appropriate section. This is my 3rd Toyota overall with my 1st one being a 96 3.4 Ext cab 4x4. The second truck was a 03 Reg Cab 4x4 with a 2.7. So far I'm enjoying the space of the double cab and newer features Toyota has offered. I wasn't impressed with the 3.5 Auto combo pretune but now enjoy the truck much more. This is mainly my daily driver so I havent gone too crazy my main goal is to just have a more enjoyable truck overall. I'm hoping the truck proves to be Toyota tough and gives me no issues for many miles to come.

    LOL None yet. My sister has the same truck but in 2wd she hit a deer 3 months ago caused almost $13K in damage as it rolled inside the truck through the windshield. Insurance actually fixed the truck as they didnt realize the extent of the interior damage when I saw how much damage the front took and How much plastic got smashed before the Crash bar I ran out and got a Ranch Hand LOL
