    Hey everyone, I'm from Canada, work in law enforcement in Edmonton, Alberta!

    Just purchased a 2020 Tacoma TRD Off Road, in metallic black.
    I've owned a few F150's, most recent coming from a 2012 3.5 EcoBoost.

    I've always liked the Tacoma's and decided to pull the trigger. I love the look of the 3rd gen and I'm glad I did.

    Been scanning over the forums for the past week, will have tons of questions I'm sure.

    Thanks everyone!
    I spent most of the day reading about lifts and levels as that's my first project.
