Hey everyone, been here lurking around for a bit now and finally thought I’d introduce myself since my truck finally arrived at the dealer this week.
A little about me:
I came from tuner cars & street bikes to start out - an eclipse, mazdaspeed3, neon srt-4’s, bugeye wrx, evo x.
Then made a big switch to a 3rd Gen Ram 3/4 ton Cummins
- 5” lift on 37’s, bigger turbo, injectors, tune, etc. I enjoyed the truck a lot but started to get to the point where everything else just started to rust away and fail on it. Being a heavy machinery mechanic during the day (10-15hr days) fixing other people’s equipment, the last thing I typically want to do is come home and fix my own vehicle 
So last April I traded the Ram in on a brand new ‘18 Jeep JL Wrangler..
and let me tell you - what a huge mistake that was.
But here I am now, just shy of a year of owning it and months of going through the lemon law process - I got approval early March of a buyback from FCA.
All the while of going through the lemon law process I was on the lookout of what I was going to replace the JL with and originally I thought I was going to go with a TRD OR 4Runner. I test drove a few, really enjoyed the 4Runner but on the other hand I really missed having a truck bed to haul things in but didnt really have a need for a 1/2 ton truck - not to mention the price difference of the Tacoma to Tundra. So I decided to pull the trigger on the Tacoma, especially once I saw one in Cement - I HAD to have it.
2019 TRD Off Road DCLB w/ tech package - having them swap out the stock Wranglers for 265/75R16 Duratracs all around (including spare).
