My first new vehicle (Longest INTRO thread)

That’s a great choice.
I purchased my first ever new vehicle when I bought a DCLB Super white in January. But I really like the quicksand as well. A great color and I would have been happy with that as well.
Welcome!

 

Welcome! we are happy to have you.

 

Hello from the great NW!! I am getting a 2017 Tacoma SR5 4x4 sometime this week. This isn't my first Toyo, I had a 82 Toyo back in the day. Took me anywhere I wanted to go plus some places I should not have been. I beat the heck out of it [ broke leaf springs, hit 2 trees left front,3 right front,headlong into ditch,backed into a couple and 2 rollovers, the last one was terminal] It was a great truck except for what I did to it. It was back in my drinking days!! Keger's at the power lines!!!......... I can't wait to get it. It has a canopy but I need better tires. One thing I want to get are some seat covers....can anyone recommend some good ones that are not to spendy? Like some that are make for the Tacoma.

 

I just joined the Tacoma lifestyle got my 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport yesterday and my dog approves. She couldn't wait to go for a ride neither could the wife and kids.
Look forward to some fun.

 

Tuna's in the house!

 

Just joined up! Got my 2004 Tacoma the day before christmas 2018 and I've been lurking on here since then decided I'd finally take the plunge and make an account. Just got done installing a bilstein 5100 3" lift with toytec springs and AAL. Looks and drives great! Can't wait to start throwing some armor on it.

 

Welcome to TW!
So much to do, haha. I feel ya.

 

Thanks!
The list of things to do just got longer. I came out this morning to find a small puddle of oil under my passenger side. CV boot came loose. Now i gotta track down an axle and a 35mm socket.

 

congrats on the new truck! What kind of mods are you looking to do?

 

Well I just changed out the passenger side axle in the front this morning. Next on the list is upper control arms. Mine are showing some age and are real close to the springs now after lifting it. I'll probably get some new lower ball joints at the same time. After that's done some new wheels with just a bit of negative offset. An arb bumper some sliders and a rear bumper after that. Winch and lights to finish it off. Some kind of drawer system in the bed. Not sure if I want a topper yet or not. The list goes on and on. Lots of overtime in my future and lots of persuading to get my wife to see the value of all the upgrades. Once I get some extra time here I'll start a build thread and keep it updated with every new addition.

Happy wife happy life!!

 

No truer words spoken!

 

I'm new here, got my third Toyota.
99 GS400
15 GS350
19 Taco - First truck.
Aye aye aye

 

My 2018 Tacoma Limited was the first "new" car I've ever purchased. I've had many company cars that were new and I bought my xwife new cars. I had a 1998 Tacoma with 265k miles on it and traded it in on this newer truck. I love it. I just broke ten thousand miles and it runs great. These guys on this forum are amazing. The little tweaks that I've done to the truck are amazing.

 

Congrats on your new truck! A TACOMA is a heck of a great first new vehicle!

 

So I've owned my Tacoma since September of 2017, but I'm just now getting around to joining TW. I've found a lot of good information in the last year and a half on here. I've been reading a lot of posts recently discuss pros/cons of tonneau covers versus camper shells. I just found a 2 year old Leer 100XQ for $1200 on Craigslist, and now my modifications are finally beginning.
Looking forward to being active in the Taco world, and building my little overland rig.

 

Hi Guys!

I’m new here, just bought my second Toyota. First was a 96’ Landcruiser now I have a 2010 Tacoma double cab long bed.

 

Hey! I am on my third Tacoma first was an 09' access cab manual trans. to a 16' TRD Sport 4x4 and now my 2018 TRD O/R 4x4. I'm a little dissppoainted in myself that it took this long for me to finally become a part of this website, but I'm looking forward to all it has to offer!!

 

Thanks!
