    Well we needed to fit a baby seat in the truck, and my access cab taco just wantwa going to cut it sooooo I traded up for bigass tundra! I'm going from the 2.7l taco to a 5.7l tundra and holy crap that's a night and day difference! Getting used to the milage will be a little bit of a curve, but so far it's not too bad. The 38gal tank on this bad boy is nice! Anywho, figured I'd say hey

    Well thanks for the warm welcome! Yea I really loved that little truck but it was just time for a change. What are the general cheap must do modifications that y'all do? I know on the taco there were a few that I knocked out quick like secondary filter delete and the rear diff vent relocation.

    I spent 6 months at the shipyard in Norfolk last summer, there were a bunch of Newport news guys and gals there too!
