    Hey everyone, nice to be here. I own a 2008 2WD Tacoma with the Double Cab and 6ft bed and 1GR-FE 4.0L V6 Engine. AKA what I affectionately call a "Grandpa Truck" lol.

    I'm just getting into customization, and just wondered what kind of stuff you guys might recommend? I'm thinking about a cat back exhaust system and a CAI JUST for looks and sound, don't really care about performance gains (she's a pavement princess).

    Thanks for any and all suggestions and keep in mind it's 2WD so any crazy offroad stuff is pretty pointless lol.

    Welcome aboard. Mine is a 2wd also, but don't let that fool you about what you can do with it. I HIGHLY recommend a sound system upgrade and some LEDs.
