    Chopped mud-flaps (yup, I'm hardcore)
    After about a six month battle with myself over what vehicle I should buy (gotta thank my wife for putting up with my ridiculousness), I finally settled on a slightly used Tacoma. I traded my 2010 Dodge Ram for this low mileage 2010 Tacoma DCSB 4x4 TRD Off-Road. I appologize for the horrible cell phone picture. Low light is a killer for cheap CCD's in cell phones.

    So far I am loving it and have already managed to get it buried in a mud hole. I have always hated mud and I still do, but I just couldn't resist trying to get to the amazing looking trail on the other side. Other than that mud, I have been incredibly impressed with the off-road capability of the truck in bone-stock form (I embarrassed a couple of wrangler owners already). I hope to get to know some of you locals to hang out, work on trucks, and find some good trails.

    Of course I took it off-road already. That is what the sticker on the rear fender says I an supposed to do, right? Actually I am pretty familiar with off road and love it. The best camping is only accessible by jeep trails.
