    Okay, I'm a jerk for not thanking you all for the warm welcome when I joined the forum in January after I bought my Prerunner, so I'm going to give this another shot.

    Thank you for the warm welcome! While I don't have much to add to the conversations, I've been learning a lot and feel like part of the community.

    Anyhow, here's what prompted my introduction redo. I came across a deal on craigslist that I couldn't pass up and picked up 4x4 Tacoma this week. I don't need 4wd (or two Tacomas lol), but am happy to have it again and hope to meet some of you fine norcal peeps on a light trail run or campout soon.

    Thanks! I’m stupidly happy about it myself. I still have the Prerunner and haven’t decided if I’m swapping the cap over yet.

    I’m giving myself this weekend to mull it over because I’ll be listing the Prerunner on CL next week.
