    I bought this new 2012 tacoma tx baja last year. I was able to get it for 31500 from the fleet sales and have been very happy with it's performance in the mountains, desert and sand dunes in Cali.

    Here's what I have added or changed:
    TRD Sport Grill with flat black emblem
    Rigid Industry light bar behind front grill
    TRD Quick Shifter
    ARB air compressor on board
    Converted head and fog lights to HID
    JL Audio Stealth Box sub woofer and amp
    Added speakers to rear access doors and changed out front door speakers
    Clifford alarm

    Thanks SoCal Supertrucks (Jeff) for the deal on front end work.

    The truck is driving great!

    A pic of the TRD quick shifter I had installed. Great upgrade also.

    Where do you live? That rig looks familiar. Anywhere around LA, Malibu, Venice, Huntington, Glendora diameter?
