    Hi everyone!
    Decided to join the gang after lurking here and researching for a few years.
    Sold my 2016 BMW X5 40e and replaced it with a new 2021 TRD 4x4 Off Road.

    I do enjoy reading and seeing everyone's rigs from small little upgrades like seat covers for the doggos to full on SEMA builds.

    It was hard to decide with which Trim to go with from either a base SR 4x4 to Pro.
    Ultimately it was the TacomaWorld forums and My lovely wife who helped me decide.

    She did not want me going mods crazy on a SR (reminds her of my old import drag racing days) and she did not think it was very nice of the Socal dealer markups on the Pro's.

    Plans for the Tacoma are just to with OEM+ for now.
    Daily driver , costco cruiser, light off-road trails and snow trips. Road trip friendly.

    Out with the old.....


    In with the new.....

    I like the BMW, what’s that door on the driver side? New truck is nice too. I have a thing for German cars. Like the toys as well, have 3 in my driveway at the moment.

    The 40e is a plug-in hybrid. The electric plug connects on the driver side fender.

    I love my German cars , still have my E46 M3 that I will be buried with.

    Sick. I bought an ‘04 convertible that ended up being the worst thing I ever bought. My Porsche has been nothing but fantastic, my wife’s jealous of that car.

    It turns heads, especially since I deleted cats and put the soul exhaust. It’s an amazing car. Got into it a little on the highway today with a newer mustang, he was good till about 100 but after that is where the Porsche shines
