    I wonder whether they visiting TW specifically, or end up here due to TW popping up prominently when using a browser to research specific topics. I would assume the latter, but i am simply assuming.

    I don't know much about Ford's as I don't particularly like them, but I feel like I could see them reintroducing them again eventually. Might just be a tactic to get people excited about them again.

    In between Tacomas at the moment.
    My guess....is that they were bored at work. And started laughing when they saw a forum user with the name 'Hairy Taco'. And they all logged on to see if it was for realz!!

    OK...excuse my ignorance, but what does "organic search" mean?

    Just googled it....means non advertising in a nutshell.

    I just checked...the vast of majority of the Ford Corp visitors land on the homepage, and since they're mostly coming from the search engines, this means that they probably googled "tacoma world". The same way some people google youtube instead of typing youtube.com

    After the homepage, it's a mix of everything but @DefconBrix's build is the second most visited page by the Ford people.

    They also hit our tire calculator to see comparisons for 205/50-R16 vs 205/55-R16. 205/50-R16 is the stock size for the Ford Focus coincidentally.
