    Hey Guys,

    Just switched over from a 4Runner to a '07 Tacoma DCLB TRD sport. Look forward to being more involved on the forum and building out my truck. This is my first Taco.

    Welcome fellow resident of the Peoples Republic. Nice Tacoma! :thumbsup:

    Why the switch from a 4Runner?

    4Runner was getting old, and I wanted to have an open bed for hauling my wakeboard gear especially after its wet.
