My first new vehicle (Longest INTRO thread)

Hello all, this is my first of many Tacomas I am sure. Starting off with 2021 base-level 4 banger double cab in black. Loving it immensely. I already have the bed dimensioned out for projects in the future. Looking forward to what is to come.

 

I just bought a 2021 Tacoma SR 4x4
It took me 6 weeks to get this truck from the local dealer
I have a leveling kit, fuel vectors and maxxis bighorn tires 275 70 17 sitting in my garage but the local shop was booked out till the end of the month.
I also have a pro grill on order.
Hoping to put some fog lights on it soon as well since the Sr doesn’t come with them.

 

I just picked up my first Tacoma and first brand new vehicle. huge difference from my last truck (2013 ram 2500). so far I absolutely love driving this lil truck and the color just got me.2021 army green Tacoma 0ff-road ,tech package.

 

Just bought my first 2021 TRD Off Road last week and just completed my first set of upgrades! I've wanted a Tacoma for years so I'm pumped to finally have one.

Winch (maybe)

 

First Tacoma, first new car, first post. Pretty excited. Breaking it in and driving my 2021 TRD Pro from the dealer in Topeka, KS to home in McCloud, CA.

 

Hey everyone, got my 2020 White SR5 Tacoma last May and just now found this forum. Happy to be a part of this community now!

 

Hi erryone! I am excited to join! I finally have my dream vehicle. 2019 TRD Off-Road. I look forward to being part of this community.

 

Hello Tacoma World
I too, am following instructions! This is my first post. I purchased my TRD PRO just last Oct. I love it I am looking forward to navigating this site and learning from all of the experience in here! Greetings to everyone from Ontario, Canada. Cheers

 

It was love at first sight...lol

 

Welcome.

 

Hey TW! Super excited to finally have a truck (2012 6 Speed Manual TRD Sport) to share on here! I have lots of build projects in mind for it! Let’s just see if the money lasts as long as the dream! I am a welder (almost finished with school) so that should help keep some of the costs down. ‍ Lots of posts coming.
Heres the pic: out with the old in with the new.

 

I am proud of my car , I am 28 and this is the first car I bought.

 

A very nice first car. Much nicer than the first one I ever purchased...lol

 

I'd been driving a 2012 Mini Clubman S since 2012 and then a 2017 Mini Clubman S ALL4 since 2017 until last November 2020. This is the first truck I've ever purchased, 2011 Tacoma TRD Sport Prerunner...I don't know why I waited so long! I was stuck on the Chevy Colorado, but my buddy had been hyping up the Tacoma for years and he asked me if I wanted to buy his last November as he was moving back home. I have ZERO regrets! I've already started modifying and making it mine! Its been to the snow and desert already, so much fun! I call it Rene, after my buddy, he wasn't joking about how cool this truck is!

 

Hey everyone just wanted to say hello, just picked up 2021 TRD OR dcsb and can't wait for the fun to begin, can't wait to learn from everybody, stay safe

 

Hello I'm also new, picked up my 2021 SR5 dcsb in December. Never new Tacoma World existed or how much info we can get from a website like this. I'm trying to get answers on my truck since not labeled TRD, OFFROAD or even 4x4. What can the others listed do that mine cant

 

This would be my new 2021 OR DCSB MT. Drove it off the lot 1/22/21 with 4 miles on it. Had the 5000 mile service done today. Not real mods planned, going to get an OVTune later this week, and besides that? Get the topper when it comes in, finish out the back for shoeing horses, and drive the piss out of it. That's what I do. First new vehicle I've ever had. Gotten close a couple times (2004 Powerstroke bought in 05 with 35k on it, and a 2011 Silverado in 14 with 28k on it), but this is a new plunge.

 

Why the ov tune if you dont mind me asking.

 

If you’re asking me, everything I’ve read in here and on a couple Tacoma Facebook groups say that it helps smooth out the power curve. It’s got the power, it just feels sluggish. Once it gets over 3000 rpm, it doesn’t feel so funky, but I drive for efficiency since I run so many miles down the road, so I’m generally shifting at 3000-3500.

 

Hi guys Mark, down in Kemah, TX just picked up my 21 TRD Taco yesterday. Hated to lose my RR but needed a new truck for work. Looking forward to being a part of the community.
