  • New Daily!!!! Non Euro content

    So as some of you know, Darcy finally got around to replacing her old 2007 FJ cruiser. Main requirement was another SUV or truck with a manual transmission. God bless her!!! Anyways, given how extremely good the FJ was for her we decided on a new Tacoma. With the help of one of our own (Thanks again Patryk), we went to southpointe toyota and ordered a new truck.

    Its a 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport, Quadcab, short box with a 6 speed manual gearbox. Here are a few pics!!

    Day we took it home:




    20 minutes later, TRD Pro grill installed:





    Darcy wanted some wheels and tires that looked more agressive so we bought a set of TRD Pro Rep wheels and a set of 265/70/17 (stock is 265/65/17) BFG KO2's. Got them installed yesterday. Super happy with the outcome!





    Might do a suspension leveling kit or a bit of a lift later on but for now Darcys super happy with it. Cant believe I used my mod money on a truck. Oh well, she deserves it!

      Very nice ,did you consider the off road package at all?
      Does this truck have Toyota safety senses , just wondering how they mounted and adjusted the camera behind the grille and if lifting the truck might affect the the system
      Any ways very nice

        No Darcy liked the color matched flares of the sport. Plus this thing will most likely never see dirt! This one is a 2017 so it doesnt have the Toyota safety sense!

                Congrats! I had no idea you could buy something like this with a manual transmission.
