    Thanks for letting me in. First time Tacoma owner
    Picked up a 2012 base, 4WD 6 cyl auto
    it has SR5 and TRD decals but it also has a salvage title (wreck) so who knows.
    I like to turn wrenches and do my own service, not much into modding, but I appreciate the work that folks put into their rides. 2EF57F7A-14AD-419D-A95A-1D0A91114842.jpgB6255938-0205-446B-BDBB-146921B2D68A.jpg
