A Reliable Vehicle

Now a proud owner of my 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road. Such a huge jump from everything I’ve had. Kinda miss the weekend maintenance that always needed done. I feel goofy driving it stock but don’t want to waste money on upgrades if it doesn’t need them yet.

What is the most sensible first upgrade from OEM? My plan is after I’m done my enlistment to take it out West and live in it until starting school later that year. I was looking at tire recommendations and even some suspension lifts.

Any and all input is much appreciated. I’m so happy to have such a great truck with a great community of many people alike.

Congrats and welcome aboard!

I always recommend doing the routine maintenance first, and maintaining that for the life of the vehicle before even considering any mods, especially mods that will shorten the life of components. There are plenty of things you can do, but I would hold off on most until you've finished college and joined the workforce.

 

Agreed. If you're gonna use the GI Bill, just enjoy the reliability and relative infrequency of repairs while going through school. Once you graduate and start making real money, then you can seriously consider tricking it out.
