    Finally got a Tacoma after wanting one for the better part of almost 30 years!!!

    Looking forward to learning more about it every day. Hopefully, this forum will tell me a little more about the features than the owners manual does.

    Been working on the Entune Plus Radio at the moment, but I'm having a rough go of it. Can't wait to check out the threads on it.

    Maybe I should rephrase that....I've wanted a Toyota since the 80's. Remember Marty McFly's Toyota in Back to the Future?? Might not have been a "Tacoma", but it was the Tacoma's Daddy.
    I've always needed bigger trucks over the years and just couldn't justify a small truck until now.

    Hi guys, just joined up myself, this is my 1st post, just learning the site. I learned of the site by browsing images of tacomas to get an idea of how to build mine and what I'd like it to look like. I have lots of questions and am ignorant on lots of things but sure I'll find help here, thnks for having me onboard.
