    Hello fellow Tacoheads!
    Bought my 1st Taco in July: 2020 Access Cab 2.7l 2WD MGM with the SX package and upgraded Duratrac tires.

    First completed mods: Air dam removal, led cabin lights, oem bed mat, A/C drain hose extension, SX decal debadge, tailgate hinge lock.

    Next in line: led reverse bulbs and possibly upgraded halogen low beams.

    Previously owned 84 Datsun and 11 Frontier. Happy with the new ride!

    Thanks, I read the shit out of the 3rd gen forum before pulling the trigger on it. Originally wanted the V6 but I think I might dodged a potential bullet with selecting the 4 banger after reading about GDI. Not hating on that motor and its performance but I kept seeing constant references of the “legendary” proven reliability of the 2.7L and being a cast iron block, which decided it for me.
