    Traded my 2011 Tundra for the Tacoma about two months ago and couldn't be happier
    A few low budget mods on my 2013 TRD sport D.C.
    Paracord wraps for the door handles and grab bars
    Plus a hi lift rack adapted to our track system

    The smaller truck is SO much easier to handle in traffic and parking lots. It's like driving a fun go cart!

    Sometimes I miss the 5.7 360 hp motor, but not the 12 mpg

    The paracord is just wrapped, I tucked the ends under the wrapping before pulling it tight. Then a dab of glue

    Paracord wraps are a nice touch. Also in an emergency situation, paracord has many uses.

    I did it mostly for grip comfort, and maybe a little for the looks
