    Hello everybody,

    First time Tacoma owner (delivered next week) can not tell you how many times i have been here pouring over information. Awesome resources, thanks for all the info.

    so what size tires and lift do you... JK

    I do plan on a 3" lift with UCA's most likely going with FOX coil overs
    I plan on running 235/85/16 Pirelli Scorpion Muds, I live in the desert and they seem like a great fit.
    any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    I do a lot of hunting and hiking, and really dig the agility of these vehicles, love the "overlander" look and functionality.

    About me, former U.S. Army (13F/ 11B)
    Fine dining back ground, classically trained (huntng = killing = killer chef lol :) )

    look forward to BS'ing with you

    cheers
