    Just got my first Toyota. I traded in my 03 Silverado DMax cc sb and got the Tacoma to reduce maintenance and aid in my long commute. Can't wait to start modding the Tacoma and look forward to the insight from this forum.

    Ill try and snap some this weekend. Ive been really busy lately. But for truck info:the color is Pyrite Mica and it is a TRD with (I believe) every option. First list of Mods will be: Tinted front windows(that match the rear), HID's and another grill and rear bumper that are color matched(I have chrome now). I just bought a house, so the list is short right now.

    Finally took some pictures and posted them in my garage. It is obviously debagged now, only mod I can afford right now...but I'm doing a lot of research on lift set-ups!

    Ha, no it is a TRD. I would have rather paid for an SR5 since I will probably ditch the factory Bilsteins and will be replacing the wheels and tires, but I like the rest of the options the TRD package has.

    Yeah it was tough getting rid of my big truck, but I like what the Tacoma has to offer...No more 10qt oil changes, fuel & tranny filters every 5K and I checked today and I'm getting 19.75mpg on my trip to work(with only 800mi on my truck-1 week of driving).
