    hey everyone!

    new member here, expecting my first Taco to Arrive next month! I've had a 07 FJ Cruiser for the past ten years, but finally making the swap for a Taco! pretty stoked to pick it up and see how it differs from the FJ, will definitely be nice to have the pick up for yard work!! Not sure how much of a build it will be, but will be getting some mods for sure...

    Oh and its a 6MT of course :bananadance:

    thanks man! yeah I do love my FJ, will be sad to see it go... but super excited for the taco! as far as sliders go I think RCI sliders are close to the top of my list! i dont really want to start drilling holes into my brand new truck and run the risk of any warranty issues. Mobtown are nice and dont require any drilling but weight alot and cost alot!!
