    I'm a brand new member with an older truck. I own a totally stock 2004 Tacoma double cab V6 that I purchased new in Dec. '04. I had the frame transplant done in Dec. 2011, and had some other major work done at the same time, so I'm going to drive this thing for a lot more years. I also recently retired from my (first) career as a firefighter/paramedic. I know a lot of guys my age lust for a Vette or something like that, but my interest revolves around making some mods to my truck. Nothing super drastic, but we'll see where things lead. A tire/lift question will follow shortly. Thanks to all, in advance, for your patience and input. Terry

    Welcome to TW.
    There are many discussion on almost anything you might want to do. A lot of smart guys and gals have done the trailblazing here.
    It's not a mid-life crisis, things just look a little different through your first set of bifocals...

    Congrats on retirement. Don't worry about filling the days, there's plenty of things that other people will find for you to do, friends, neighbors, significant other(s), family and last but not least TW,
