    Hello,


    Just took advantage of the year-end deals and finally purchased a 2014 Toyota Tacoma Texas Edition. It's been a little over a week now and I'm still in love with the truck. A little about me: I am currently serving in the National Guard as a Medic (going on 6 years now) and will be commissioning into the US Army as an Active Duty Field Artillery Officer this May. In light of this, I anticipate a lot of driving and moving around initially, and the extra benefits a truck brings to the table are what led me to consider a Toyota Tacoma. So far, I haven't done anything in terms of adding performance or aesthetic features, but in the near future I want to tint the windows a little darker than they are now and possibly add a brush-guard. Other than that, I'm very happy with the way it is but I'm looking forward to seeing what others have done to their Tacomas and some insights I can get to improve vehicle longevity (even though Tacomas last a LONG time) and get the most out of a full tank of gas.
