    Just purchased a 2014 Taco Sport 4WD. Had a scrape on the hood so the dealership is fixing it so I can pick it up next week. Not my first Toyota. My wife drives a 2010 Toyota Highlander AWD and I had a 1987 4WD Toyota truck many years ago. Look forward to gleaning as munch info from the forum as I can. Thanks for having me!

    I'm on a small farm in the Sandhills, Southern Pines. Got 30 acres near Boone that we will be building a house on and moving hopefully next year. That is why I need the 4x4. Just sold my non 4x4 F-150 to my brother.

    Hello there and welcome!

    I'm a also a Tacoma owner from NC (Raleigh/Durham) and new to TW. Iv'e had my 2016 offload Taco for over a year now and just swapped wheels and tires. Now with 285s!! and loving it. That being said, I will be selling the OEM wheels with the Kevlar tires, as well as the TRD offload bilsteins front and rear. Formal sell post coming soon with pics.

    I'm very much looking forward to exploring the abundance of info shared through this network.

    Cheers!
