    Hi Everyone,
    I'm new to the forum. I've been aware of the forum for some time but I figured I should just join since I just bought my second Tacoma. I guess that officially makes me a Tacoma fan! haha. I currently have a 2005 TRD Off Road 4x4 6MT access cab, and now a 2021 TRD Sport 4x2 double cab. Glad to be a part of this and learn from the community!

    @charliehex Oh my god I want to! She's brand new and so far the family truck but as soon as I can (and have the money), I will. I think about all the things I could have done to my 2005, other than the leveling kit, but didn't. As far as my 2021, any suggestions without opening a can of worms? hah.

    I wanted to change the tires right away because the stock tires are kinda weak off road (my buddy sliced two sidewalls two weeks ago) and aren’t made for airing down. I also wanted more ground clearance. That required a lift.

    Just enjoy your truck and when you hit a sticking point that keeps you from having your type of fun, it’s time to upgrade. That might be a kayak rack or just camping gear. These trucks are pretty capable for most applications.

    Oh for sure, I want to upgrade the tires first thing. On my old truck, I had a rad set of Yokohama Geolanders that got discontinued (super bummed about that) but I ended up getting the same size Wranglers which seem to be good too. And I'm sure some spacers are in order. Thanks for the advice! I am a newbie and open to suggestions -haha.
