    Sup Tacoma World!

    I was fortunate enough to be given a 2009 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab I4 and I've been doing research on the truck and came across this website. The community here seems very chill and welcoming so I thought I would join up myself.


    I only really have one question that I might make a thread on but I might as well ask it here too.

    I recently was hired for a job that is in East Greenbush near Albany, NY. Coming from Houston, Texas I don't have too much experience being that far out in the NE (I do have a sister that lives in NYC, but have only visited without a vehicle obviously) and I want to get my Tacoma as fit as possible to be able to drive in that kind of location.

    Any Tacoma owners in the Albany area or around there have any tips or advice to better prepare the truck for driving up there?
