    Good day all, my name is J.d and I am a retired submariner that just got back in the truck world with a 2017 Tacoma manual extended cab. I absolutely love my new Taco so far and just had it almost 6 weeks and will be going in for my 5000 mile check up next week.
    I have looking to put bigger tires on it and change the lighting issue around my truck. In June, I will be looking into a 3" lift kit and bigger tires. I haven't decided on my rims but will post pix when they are available. I am also going to upgrade my lighting and install more lighting around my truck. I am going to put a rope LED system in the bed for lighting and a Bar light in the back for better visability that changes white when I back up. I am changing most all my lights to LED including the dome lights. I will be installing LED lighting on my Predator bars that light up when I open the door or turn on the dome light.
