    Hello All,
    I am actually Papa to jrtaco. Personally, I've never owned a truck, however my 16 y.o. son's grandparents got him a 2012 Tacoma Access Cab, 4 cyl, 2 WD with stock 15's (never imagined I'd be spoutin' off that kind of lingo). In a short 1 1/2 weeks, I have learned a lot from TacomaWorld's community posts.

    Just wanted to say "thank you" and hello! I will soon post on another forum my current dilemma or confusion.

    Nice grandparents! And if hes out earning a buck and being a good kid then there's nothing wrong with giving the kid a good vehicle to drive. My parents did:D
