    Hey, First post to the Forum and new to Tacoma's. Just purchased a new 2012 Tacoma and its my first.
    Traded in my dying / dead Chevy Silverado 1500 4x4.

    Access Cab
    4x4
    SR5
    Alloy Wheels
    White

    So I'm looking for direction on what I should be looking out for. Below are some of my varied ideas that I may need help on.
    * Floor Mats - All weather
    * Window Shades
    * Alloy Wheel Cleaner
    * Wax

    Any ideas you could put out there would be appreciated.

    Too many to list now.
    I've got a set of grey weathertechs, best floormats you can buy. I'd sell them to you if you're interested, I already have a set in my truck and someone gave me these. Used but not used up.

    Oh, and welcome to TW!

    Welcome to TW!! You got a big upgrade from a Chevy!

    x2 on the WeatherTechs! I found a full set on CL for $75. If you're patient you can find a good deal. Once in a while they'll go on sale here, or I think they have group buys once in a while. Definitely a good investment!

    I don't know anything about window shades, but check out the detailing section to get more info on wheel cleaner/wax!

    BTW nice color choice!

    I don't think I'll ever buy another truck, I love my Tacoma. Drives and looks great.

    I am learning a lot from this Forum as well. I am enjoying lurking in the background. I don't know if I have the gumption to make any modifications especially as of yet. Who knows, maybe after it gets a little older lol.:rolleyes:
