    Just a brief introduction. I'm from the Toronto, Canada area & recently purchased my first Tacoma. Already this forum has helped repair some of the common issues (like the broken resistor in the overhead display fix, awesome!).
    I'm new to the forum, but certainly no stranger to spending the day under a hood. 20+ years as a licensed Tech and you tend to learn a few things. :D
    Looks like a great community. Here's hoping I can contribute something of value...
