    Nice, k20 turbo? I went from honda > DSM > benz (plus jeep and corolla)> toyota lol.

    Every fun car I've had was faster than the last up until this truck. Don't miss out on the speed at all anymore and with the prelude and eclipse that I had was always paranoid about people stealing it (thieves tried to steal my prelude) and gutting it. Enjoy going slow for now! lol.

    As for tires you can fit 285s there without a lift, just need to do some minor trimming or reshaping with a heat gun.

    A lil' update on the Taco

    Did the LED headlight and fog conversion yesterday using Opt7 Lighting Flux LED's. Super bright when standing in front but I haven't driven it yet so I'll update once I do. Here's a few pics..

    Hello everybody in Tacoma land .
    Just wanted to say hello, new memeber here .
    Just gotten bitten by the Tacoma bug ...
    I will be picking up my 18 Tacoma pro in Calvary blue in December ....can’t wait !

    They offered me a 17 TRD PRO in cement but I wanted all the new safety features that standard on the 18.
    I hope I made the right decision ..lol.

    I would guess so since it’s the PRO. It wouldn’t make sense that the Off-Road premium has cooled and heated seats, while the PRO doesn’t.

    I know , they had a 17 cement that I could have purchased ....but they said the 18’s will have a different color ...and the safety features will be included for free to boot !
    So I will be waiting 2 more months for it ...
    Plus I do like the new cavalry blue...saw it on the 4Runner ...and loved it .

    Definitely brighter than I expected. I cant tell a difference between these and HID's. So far they are great. No complaints.

    Right now I'm looking at Icon Alloy Rebound wheels and Falken WildPeaks. Should have em on the next few weeks if all goes as planned. Just deciding a color to go with on the wheels.
