Wanted to say hello...

This is my first Tacoma... Hell, first truck actually. The 2.7 is a little underpowered from what I'm used to, but with the 5 speed it does well. I traded in an 08 VW passat with a 3.6L, so the decrease in power is very apparent, but I was looking more for reliability and utility than power.

Today was the first day I was able to take it out on a dirt road and get it into 4H. I can say that I can complete confidence in this rig, even with the stock AT20 tires. It took a 6 foot long section of muddy water immediately followed by a steep incline with no problem. Depending on how the tires do in the snow, I may keep them or I may be replacing them before next Winter, but they'll work for now.

Here's a pic of the truck. It's a 2013 4 cyl. 5 speed 4x4 with the SR5 package. Sorry for the dealer paper front plate insert, the picture was taken the day after I bought it and I forgot it was there.

 

Nice lookin truck! Welcome to TW!

 

Nice truck! Welcome to TW!

 

Thank you. It's definitely a truck I'll be happy owning for the next 10+ years.

 

Welcome, you will really enjoy your truck. You will be amazed the amount of information that is available on this site. There is always someone who can help you out.

 

Welcome, nice truck! Those tires are good for 1k miles lol. So I'd ditch those tires pretty quickly. More pics though, looks nice!

 

Considering how much I drive, then they will then last me until about April next year . I agree though, from the sound if it from others and how they act in the PNW rain, I won't have them on for too long.

 

Welcome
