    Hello Everyone! I recently got my first Tacoma and this forum was a huge help in helping me decide on getting one! I'm based in the SF Bay Area and you may see us in Tahoe quite frequently this winter!

    I don't plan on doing much customization, but will need a tonneau cover (currently looking at the Extang hard cover 2.0) and may switch out the tires for some Falken Wildpeak AT's. Would love feedback on both of these if anyone has experience with them!

    Thanks and looking forward to reading and learning a ton from this forum!

    This is Betty!
