    2024 Tacoma TRD Offroad
    New member here! Coming out of a 2018 Ford Raptor into a 2024 Tacoma TRD Offroad. The Raptor was a fun truck but an absolute nightmare reliability-wise. So far, I'm loving the Tacoma and pleasantly surprised with it. Got some new Methods and Toyos on there. Salvaged my KC Hilites from the Raptor as well as several Baja Design Squadron Pros to mount on the new roof rack I have coming from Rave Offroad.

    Welcome! congrats on the truck. That is a big change from a Raptor to a Tacoma. I had considered a Raptor, they seem to keep their value like the Toyotas. I didn't know they had such bad reliability. Was it the cam phaser stuff?

    Anyhow, this forum is awesome. Loads of great information. I was happy to find a forum still up and active these days

    Haven't been here long myself, but I can warn you to proceed with caution... It's a slippery slope!

    Too many goodies available for these trucks & a wealth of knowledgeable members and insights. Been spending more time reading & exploring here than actually driving/ using the damn thing, lol.

    Welcome.
