Howdy folks,

I am a new Tacoma owner. I am a former Jeep guy who was immediately converted when introduced to the Hilux. The Tacoma (almost as cool) has all the capabilities of the jeep but with much more comfort, better gas mileage, four doors, and still has a truck bed which I sorely missed in my Jeep.
Some day when I have extra money, I hope to do the Hilux engine conversion http://dieseltoys.com/pricing/toyota . But their price has gone up a bunch since I first decided to go this route.
So far I am very pleased with my Tacoma and look forward to some learning and modifying.
