    I'm purchasing a new Gen3 Tacoma TRD Off Road 4x4 in a few hours....

    WHAT are the first "necessary" upgrades. I have a BakFlip Tonneau cover being installed.
    Have a tailgate lock ordered and about to order a remote lock for the tailgate...what else?

    First thing I did with mine was a lift and tires. But tires would be number one on my list if it’s an off road.

    But stuff like this is entirely personal. No one knows what you want more than you do right? Some guys are perfectly happy to leave it stock and some guys mod the hell out of it. It’s entirely up to you...

    How about simply driving it for a while and then figure out what you want for yourself?.
