    I just bought my first truck, I have built many many cars and wanted something different. I bought a 2007 Tacoma double cab trd off road with the sport package in red, I really like the agressive front end with the hood scoop, I haven't driven the truck much but what I have so far I love it. I know nothing about putting lifts on and what not so I will probably be picking everynes brain, I have a few questions the truck has 90k on it would you even suggest a lift or leave it alone I got a 3yr 36k mile warranty from Toyota with it and it covers everything the factory one does except a few minor things, also any suggested maintenance they said the flushed the diffs, the coolant, and put new plugs and air filter in it. If not a lift what size tires would everyone suggest. Like I said I am new to the truck game and any help is appreciated.
