    Hi all,

    I'm a recent convert from VW to Toyota. I just picked up this beautiful Timberland Mica 2011 Tacoma double-cab on Saturday. I love driving her, she's so much smoother and quieter than my VW was. I don't plan on any 'mods' since so far, I love her just the way she is, but I'd be interested in the truck-bed options, since we like to go camping often. She has the 5' short bed.

    Thanks

    Welcome!!! I work for VW and have been driving my YOTA for 5 yrs. How do you go from a VW to a YOTA? Tired of it being in the shop?

    Yeah, I guess I was tired of worrying about upcoming maintenance, also I've been wanting a Tacoma for a long time, and felt like I should take the jump.
