    Hey everyone,

    A little about my Tacoma: Just bought a '19 Tacoma TRD 4x4 Off-Road. It's white with the black badging. I had the standard Toyota factory 17" wheels taken off and replaced with the 19" black TRD 4Runner wheels. I also had the dealer replace the standard TRD 4x4 Off-Road hood with the sport hood with the scoop. The interior is all black with the black leather seats.

    A little about myself: Born and raised in GA. After college, I spent 9 years in the Army as a UH-60 Blackhawk Pilot. Came back to GA about 3 years ago and now work in Hotel Development managing construction.

    I'm super excited about my Tacoma! I've been reading and watching videos about Toyota TRD vehicles for a couple years now. My Chevy Tahoe finally got to a point where it wasn't going to be reliable (~240,000 miles). So I traded it in on my new Tacoma!

    Since I'm new to the Tacoma world and just getting back into the Off-Road world in GA. Does anyone know of any legal off-road areas near Lawrenceville, GA?

    Thanks and great to be a part of this forum.

    Welcome and congrats on the new truck! Can I ask how much the dealer charged for the sport hood?

    They charged about $2000 for the hood and install, includes paint to match your truck. I got to keep the old hood also.
