    TW,

    After lurking for some time thought I would just join up. Purchased my 2020 TRDOR, DCSB, three-pedal back in May and love it. I have wanted a Tacoma for 18 years - yes 18 years! I tried three previous times to buy a Tacoma (2002, 2009, and 2018) and finally got my dream vehicle. Not looking to do anything too extreme with it as moving a lot means that keeping the warranty is important! I have read a lot of great info here that has helped a lot. Thanks and looking forward the future.

    ~Tim

    Based on the photos you posted, you are driving in winter climate conditions and not on paved surfaces, although the stock tires will work, there are options that will not only increase your traction for safety reasons, but also let her know there are areas that offer much more beautiful scenery, but unfortunately your stock tires are not capable of getting you there. :D
