    Hey everyone. I'm new here. Though like most other guys I have been reading this forum for months. Last September I bought a new '18 TRD OR. I was born with a disability that affects my muscles but I have never let that slow me down. I am a pretty big outdoor enthusiast and plan on my Tacoma taking me further out than I usually roll... My friends call me tank because of my tracked mobility chair. I'm finally joining the forum to meet other Tacoma guys and learn as much as I can.

    Thanks! This chair is a beast. It's a 24v powerhouse. Not fast but she can crawl/climb over just about anything.

    No it's made by a company called Action Track Chair. They are based out of Minnesota. Mine is about 8 years old. I put bigger AGM batteries in her with a few other minor mods but she is still rolling. strong. I use it for everything. I've pulled 2wd trucks (on level ground) out of slight mud ruts. I even used it to pull my main power service back up to my roof after a drunk driver hit a pole and ripped it off my house.
