    Hi from Long Island, just picked up my '18 Taco Pro this afternoon. Lost my '13 Speed3 to a Noreaster and high tide flooding that came along with it 4 weeks ago, got 15k for it from insurance and the search was on. I was all over the place from subies to RS to Golf R and then decided to go in a different direction.
    Was looking at Colorados,Tacos and possibly a Ranger, but decided on a TRD Pro when I saw it on Carguru for 36,900 with 13k on the clock and it was on the road for 9 months. I have not had an automatic for 30 years and was thinking it was time to go that way but the truck Gods would have none of that and directed me to another 6 speed. Well that is enough words just looking forward to fun times in the truck and meeting a new community.

    Well, I plan on getting tuned and doing some beach running and a few trips to Rauch Creek. Also a tow vehicle for a future spec Miata to the track and tail of the dragon.
