    Hello fellow taco owners! I just purchased my first Tacoma last week after driving a 2013 Jeep Wrangler 2dr for 10 years. I've been eyeing a Taco for about 4 years now and after some recent hefty repair bills to the Jeep it was finally time to move on. I purchased a 2023 SR5 DC 4x4 v6 in metallic gray, and I've been having a great time with it so far.

    In terms of mods, I've already picked up the center console and glove box organizers and intend to upgrade the wheels and tires after around 20k miles (if I make it that far). In the more immediate future, I plan on getting the KDMax Pro 9.0 & upgrading the speakers in the coming months.

    Excited to contribute to the community as I learn more about the truck!

    Nice man. Welcome to TW and Welcome to team Taco!

    Hopefully your taco does not have the mechanical difficulties you mention. My 07 sport I've had since new. 350k it's had the clutch rebuilt once. That's it. Hopefully our g3 tacos live up to that record.

    The reliability was one of the main buying decisions for this move. Really happy so far! + warranty and ToyotaCare is a huge plus. Also getting the KDMax 9.0 upgrade next weekend!
