    Hey guys, TrdWorldTaco here. First time Tacoma owner, first time Toyota owner. I was a Ford guy and wanted a midsize pickup, so I bought a new Ranger but it was pretty much a tin can POS, couldn't stand it. The low end torque from the Ecoboost was nice, but that's about it.

    So I was lucky enough to be able to get out of that truck and pick up a new TRD OR without too much of a hit. The build quality is sooo much better, at least when looking at initial fit and finish. I'll miss the torque of the Ranger but already love this truck after driving it home today and taking it on its first duty as a truck...dump run.

    This looks really smart to the one I'm getting. Is that the 60" bed?
