    Hey everyone, I'm Niko. I married an American in Europe a while ago and whenever we visited her family over in Georgia for the holidays they used to let me drive their 2012 Tacoma around. I really liked it and as soon as we decided to move to the US I knew I wanted to get a Toyota truck.

    [​IMG]

    I got my 2020 TRD Pro (dual cab was really hard to find for some reason?) a week or 2 after landing here earlier this year and it has been amazing. We have since moved to Austin and moving with my Tundra was a breeze, lots of money saved on moving costs too because of it.

    [​IMG]
    Moving to Texas! Comfortable 15 hour drive (shoutout to tow/haul mode, couldn't even feel the trailer)

    I wasn't really a truck guy growing up since we didn't have any where I lived so I don't know much about lift kits and turbochargers, which is why I wanted to join this forum and learn from ya'll.

    I hope joining this community won't cost me too much money, only good ideas please!

    P.S.: Turns out I need a front license plate in Texas but I don't have a mount. Anyone know a good way to mount it? I want something very minimal, I don't like frames.
