    Hello TW-
    I recently (ish) purchased my new-to-me 2008 Tacoma TRD Sport, with a 6 speed manual.
    The PO had installed Dobersons front coils, dobersons UCA, an unknown front bumper with a warn evo 8k winch, and rigid led pods. In the rear he had installed OME medium load leafs, and an airbag kit, along with an auxiliary transfer tank which I believe is 17 or 18 gallons. He also had a new clutch installed, and an LCE Flywheel.
    Have had a very fun time with the truck thus far, although the 6 Speed TOB chirp/rattle has been driving me nuts. Oh well.
    As a detailer- right off the get go the truck got a full interior extraction and a full paint correction on the exterior. The roof was pretty oxidized and is now in great shape again.
    Of course, my marketplace addiction got the best of me, and I was able to locate a set of 2.5 king ext travel front coilovers with accutuning, along with a set of King 2.5x12 rear shocks, also accutuned. 1500$ for the set of two which are currently being rebuilt before install.
    This month of november I took advantage of the awesome sale on the MarTec rear shock relocation which I ordered and have been drooling over whilst I wait for my shocks to be rebuilt.
    My end goal is to have basically a "good" all around truck. I have a 23zero walkabout 62 from my last truck, which was a 2nd Gen Dodge, and my goal is to be able to find a used softopper, and a rack to put on top of the softopper for the tent. I would love to be able to have a good mix of good capability low speed offroad, some mild mid speed offroad, and a great daily driver, although that will require some compromising in each department.
    I am excited to join the TW community and update as I start to move forward on this build. Thank you.
