    What's goin on yall! I picked up a 97 Tacoma 2.4l 5spd 4x4 from a guy the other day and I love it. I initially bought it as a hunting rig, but I have ended up driving it more than my Cummins. So far, I've put new Cooper AT3s on it, replaced the grill, headlights and side lamps, and added a Bluetooth Radio (must have). My only complaint right now is the 60/40 seat. I won't be doing any rock climbing or cross country treks, but still look forward to messing around with it. Looking forward to learning and growing with the TW community.


    BTW not sure if I added this picture the right way....but here is how she sits tonight.
