    Hello everyone.....my name's Dave and I'm a new Tacoma owner! (Now why does that sound like I'm introducing myself at an AA meeting? LOL)

    Anyway, this is my first ever Toyota vehicle and I'm so glad I chose to own a Tacoma. I always wanted to own one and when my 2000 Dodge Dakota seemed like it was going to take some serious $$'s to keep it road worthy, I decided to start looking for new wheels. My old truck only had 79,000+ miles on it but time was catching up to it. Being that I live just outside of Wilmington, NC I started looking at the local dealer.....Hendrick's Toyota of Wilmington. I fully believe I made a wise choice and thought I'd post a couple of pictures here for you all to see my choice. The color is Magnetic Gray Metallic.

    Vent visors from WeatherTech....in channel! Love how these just dress the truck up a touch!

    Oh and thanks everyone for the warm welcomes!

    Also, another quick question. On a 2015 Taco, can you make it so the power door locks automatically lock at a certain speed? My Dakota did this but I cannot find anything about it in the owner's manual.
