    Hi TacomaWorld!

    Here's my history of cars owned:

    1999 Toyota Solara (Sold)
    2003 Audi A4 Avant (Sold)
    2004 Audi A4 Avant (Sold)
    1967 Datsun Roadster 1600 (Sold)
    2014 Audi Allroad (Daily Driver)
    1969 Porsche 911T (Sold)
    2001 Toyota Tacoma (Just bought!)

    My first truck and I'm loving it! It's funny I had a Toyota v6 for my first car, and now coming back into the Toyota world. I'll be moving to Truckee, CA and living in snow so I needed something that can get me around easier in some terrain. I'm super excited to join the forums and can't wait to meet some of you. Anyone from Truckee?

    2001 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 SR5 V6 5 Speed Manual in Impulse Red.

    Just off the bat, I have some newbie questions:
    My seller noted it had the towing package, what does that imply?
    How big can I go on tire size at stock height without rubbing? I'm considering 16x8 wheels with beefier tires but dont want to do a lift. Any suggestions?

    Now on to pictures! (Yes, I'll be removing the huge rack haha)
