    2012 Black Tacoma - TX Edition
    Thanks guys! Trying to learn as much as I can about my "Taco" as well as the differences between it and other models - Prerunner?, etc... I owned a Toyota pickup back in the early 90's, but haven't had one since. They weren't called Tacoma's back then - Not sure the Tundra was around back then either.
    I'll probably have some questions, but not until I read all the sticky's and do the appropriate searches.

    Welcome!

    Tacoma's weren't introduced until '95, before that Toyota trucks were simply called "pickups". No Tundra back then either, the T-100 was around but not until the time the Tacoma came about (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Tacoma's came in 4x4 models or "Prerunner" models, which are 4x2 but built on a 4x4 frame/suspension. Prerunners were discontinued in the 3rd gen.

    Post up some photos of your truck!
