    Hi Guys. New Taco owner here. This is the first Toyota I've ever owned. I've owned mostly cars (Mustangs) over the years. I even had a nice 04 F-150 FX4 about 7 years ago. I never could get use to parking that big SOB (long hood). Well enough about my vehicle history.

    I'm a full time Paramedic locally for 18 years now. I've worked as a Flight Medic for about 4 years. Hard to believe but I make more on the ground.

    I've gotten into serious detailing the last 7 years. I guess its a side effect of owning a black car. Since then, I've gotten all kinds of products from all over the internet - CarPro, AutoGeek, DetailersDomain, DetailersClub, AutopiaCarCare, DetailedImage the usual suspects. I have probably the longest thread on the internet about microfiber towels. I've got all kinds of tools and own 1 vehicle. Yeah, i'm that obsessed.

    Anyway, I'm looking to do a few things to my tacoma. Not really sure what other than a bull bar.

    Well, nice to meet you guys. I'll see you around.


    Heath

    I'll get a pic in a few hours. I worked all night last night, got home, cleaned up my Mustang and cleaned it out. Sold the car. Had my best friend drive me to the dealership. I finally make it home about 630pm tonight. Walk up to my door and realize I left my house keys in my buddy's truck. Long, rough day. Totally happy with my Taco. I test drove a couple. Walked into the dealership and found this one sitting on the showroom floor. Salesman- Wanna take it out??"Sure".

    Thank you guys for the welcome!
