    I am new to the community and to Toyota world. First Tacoma but have owned a couple of 4 wheel drive vehicles before. My Inferno 2016 Tacoma looks good (it looks new and is new to me) and has 52k miles. Doesn't look as if there are any mods but that will change as time and money permits. Looking for a good place to take a Taco for repairs and builds (like a 4.88 gear upgrade). Also, are there others out there from Kernersville (K'Vegas) on the forum? Where do y'all wheel? Uwharrie maybe?
