    Hey guys, I've browsed this forum since I bought my Tacoma about a year and a half ago. This truck is the first car I've owned that I've taken the time to learn how to maintain, repair, and modify (had never even done an oil change or owned a socket set before I bought it), and this forum along with YouTube has been immensely helpful with step by step guides, part numbers, diagnoses--it's taught me most of what I know about the truck. So I thought I'd finally register and maybe give back!

    Every block! I see the third gens everywhere in Vegas, Reno is all about the old beaters. Which fits both cities' personalities pretty well.
