    Vehicle:
    2012 TX baja DCSB AT barcelona red
    Warn winch, body armor rear bumper, 2x yellow top optima, color matched wheel bead, weather tech mats, ams oil everywhere, De-badged, hard wired radar detector, rear diff. breather extension, k+n, fog light any time, trailer wiring relocate, iridium plugs, LED grill marker lights,
    I really liked the baja when it came out, i just didn't want to be driving the exact same truck as everyone else so Ive just done a few little things to make it my own. I bought the truck new and I love it and haven't had any problems.
    all fluid switched to ams oil within 5k miles
    8k warn winch in front
    had the wheel lip painted to color match the truck
    i put a road armor bumper in the rear
    lots of little stuff, painted the front cowl black
    put led marker lights on front,
    installed a yellow top , have one more to install with it,
    relocated rear diff breather, tinted windows, trimmed mud flaps, the next thing i want to do is get some armor for underneath, and when my tires ware out i will replace them with the same bfg at but 285s.
    the Tacoma is my daily driver, i only pull small trailers, use the bed for feed, i live on a farm, or just taking gas cans to fill up, i pull my boat almost every weekend in the summer, and go hunting in the winter its a perfect truck for running around. if i have to haul the dump trailer or cattle, or car trailer i drive a 2007f350 or when were going on a road trip we take my wife's 2014 corolla s. but for my dd the taco is the only way to go! im an auto tech so i do all my work/ maintenance my self. when my suspension components wear out i will upgrade when replacing. i like the new modle trucks coming out, but like others will give it a couple years. i enjoy not having a truck payment and will keep this truck untill its toast, but i plan on having it a long time and a lot of miles. good maintenance is the way to go! and will save money in the long run. thank you TW you have helped me so much with this!

    Thinking about installing a new TRD baja suspension kit on my 2008.
    I haven't driven a TX, but was wondering how it rides.... and if it's worth the money.

    Nice TX man!!!

    ya, it rides really well. i had a 2010 tacoma or and the baja seems to ride "tighter" on and off road. but for after market, for the money, you can get a better set up! thank you! i love these trucks
