    Hi.
    Just traded my F-150 (not gonna lie, my ford was my BABY!) for a 2012 Tacoma TRD Pro 4x4 6-speed manual. LOVE IT! she's so shiny.

    The person who own the vehicle before me (only one single previous owner) obviously did some mods... still trying to figure some of it out. (my dad realized there was a sub in the back seat...)

    I'm not a mechanic, but I'm sufficiently inclined. (I've helped re-build a neon engine, replaced an alternator in 40 below, I can lift my own tires into the bed of my truck.)

    Alaska group, you'll know my white tacoma by the "907 Alaska Grown Redhead" sticker on the back window. :thumbsup:

    So far my main two things are the aftermarket deck is not working properly and the Viper Auto start fobs are dead. (I am no good with electrical.)

    AND most importantly, my boyfriend drives a 2014 fresh off the lot Chevy Silverado. (Key word... BOYFRIEND.)

    Kay, Thanks!

    If its the same girl I think it is. It won't be the last odd thing you hear her say. Blocking now, just in case.

    My dad was just working in Kodiak at the Coast guard base for a year as a maintenance guy. But I live in the metropolis of Anchorage aka the A-hole.

    Welcome to TW. Unfortunately you got ripped off if you thought you bought a TRD Pro... Those were not available until 2015

    I've been on other Ford forums before when I had a 1993 Ranger, I guess it's an automatic defense system hard wired into my brain.
    Girls who drive trucks aren't anything unless they learn to fix their truck. And as you probably know, guys like girls who tend to play in engines. It's probably just a redhead problem.
