    Just traded in my 2015 GS350 for a 2020 Tacoma TRD Off-road. This is my first truck. Not sure if the previous owner added these exterior mods or it came that way in some sort of package? Anyways I love it so far and am excited to drive it back and use it in Washington, where I am currently a travel nurse. I am thinking of adding an overland rack and hard RTT but will be check the marketplaces when I get back to Washington. Glad to be a part of the Tacoma world.

    Looks good man! Fellow traveler here, I’m a traveling PT! Deff some previous appearance mods from the previous owner, but looks cool! Congrats on the new truck.

    My favorite mod I’ve done, especially as a traveler, is my Diamondback HD bed cover. Rock solid locking and waterproof. Expensive, but worth it for piece of mind when I’m traveling between contracts that all my stuff in the back is secure and dry. Also nice cause you can strap down anything extra on top, it’s rated to a ton of weight!

    Enjoy the truck life!

    Mine were chrome initially (gross), so I actually just sanded, primed, and bed lined them myself. Literally first weekend with my truck popped those suckers off and did the job. Couple hours, about $30. I think they turned out great and I love the black bumper anyways vs. color matched so it was a no brained for me.
