    Hello to all!! Im a new member here and have been lurking until I bought my new truck to post an introduction, Well here we are

    Bought the truck with 56k, 1 owner Carfax Certified
    2004 SR5 TRD Automatic 3.4 V6 Rear E locker

    I have been searching for this truck for a while, its HARD to find a low mile clean un modified 1st Gen Tacoma, I was lucky enough to find one at a dealer near Denver, after phone negotiations and a few hours the dealer called me and said "Its Yours" ! I felt like a new father, Im a Toyota fanatic already and after owning several 1989-1995 pickups, I wanted a Tacoma. I had great luck with my 1996 4Runner and the bullet proof 3.4 motor in the past, so a Tacoma was a no brainer.

    We live in Western Colorado, close to Moab UT and miles of awesome expedition trails and camping.
    The plan for the Taco is a freeway capable, expedition rig/daily driver. This truck is bone stock except for the brand new Michelin 265 70 16 AT2 tires, previous owner had some coin to spend on these.

    Im blessed to live near an amazing Toyota shop, Safari LTD. and Alcan Spring is located 5 miles from my house, so I know my mod addiction will be well supplied.
    Im looking forward to meeting some fellow owners and maybe a Western Slope/Utah meet and greet- trail run??

    Warm weather is coming, Im looking to do my suspension next, 2.5 Sway Aways up front, custom Alcan springs in back with geasable shackle kit. Then some 285 55 16 Cooper's
    Any advice is always appreciated.
