    Hello Tacoma world. Been using this site since I got my first Tacoma in late August. Just registered now, so Let me share a little history ab myself

    I’m 17 years old, I ride around on a Honda 250x Supermoto, and own an 08 Tacoma access w/ 4.0 6spd TRD sport (black w/ 60,000 miles). Picked it up yesterday. My first Tacoma was a 05 double cab with the 4.0 6spd in a beautiful red color w/trd sport and OR package. Loved that thing. Unfortunately, on a cold Friday night, I slipped on black ice and went down a ditch and into a tree. Completely devastated. More pissed that I filed a claim w/ insurance, bc insurance totaled it. Now I will never hesitate to use 4wd, no matter how much gas it uses lol.
    I know enough about working on cars to keep me busy. More than the average 17yo. I’m More savy with bikes, but that’s because I started riding when I was 12, and I started working on cars more or less around when I got my permit.

    Well, that’s about it. Be prepared to correct my terrible teenager spelling

    Thanks!!
