    20160726_081531.jpg Hey guys/gals, JR here. Picked up a low mileage 2012 tacoma 4d Base model last week. Just wanna say its a privilege to be part of a good looking community. I plan on doing upgrades in the future but also plan on building a house next year so im currently counting pennys. It will be my daily driver but I would like to make it have a beefier look. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Welcome to TW JR!
    Great looking truck and congrats on the purchase.
    Smart to count your pennies for home building, there are lots of great mods here that do not cost much.
    1. I bought off Amazon for $5 a cocktail bar organizer for inside the center console.
    2. For tires, I bought Cooper Discoverer AT3s. Love the tires.
    Discount Tire Direct offers great deals on the Coopers. I got mine off ebay via Discount Tire with a rebate and $100 off.
    The 265/70/16s were $406 shipped. You could go up to 265/75/16s for $386. They do this deal twice a year.
    Here is the thread for that though this ended you get the idea
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ct-via-ebay-ended.419678/page-8#post-12418877
    3. Keep a look out for @Unchained 5150 deals on accessories. He coordinates amazing deals for us on A LOT of stuff.
    4. @ramonortiz55 also coordinates some great group buys plus many, many, many other vendors/members here who make and fab lots of stuff.
    I guess maybe saving money is not the best place to be on TW hahahahahahahhaha
    Enjoy your truck!
