    Like the title says, I'm new to the Tacoma World and just bought my first Tacoma. It's a 2012 TRD Off Road, Nautical Blue, Double Cab, 6 speed Man w/ 4X4 and I love it! Anybody have any good advice or information as a new Taco owner in NorCal? Thanks...

    Welcome to TW!

    We get together every now and then for meet and greets, wrenching days, and wheeling trips. Any mods you plan on doing? What part of NorCal?

    oh and thanks for your service :)

    I'm in Wheatland, small town about 30 mins north of Sac. As for mods this is my first truck so we'll see what happens. Brian, I was just looking at forums for the new Taco and TW looked pretty good, is Angel from around here?
