    Hello all, just getting into these forums.

    My sister was driving my 06 Taco and got hit on the interstate and rolled 3 times at 65+ mph, and I was in the car ahead of her trying not to freak out. She and her passenger were spared from serious injuries; just a small break in her elbow.

    So after insurance gave me 5k more than I paid for my Taco I opted to go for the runner because I wanted the climate controlled and locked cargo area. Just fits my needs better. 2007 White v6 sr5 4wd.

    Would really like to lift it enough for 33s or 35s, and add a nice rear overlanding bumper of some kind… and probably a roof rack. I like to go camping in remote places, especially in Texas. Hope my v6 can take it :oops:

    Pretty much all stock so I’ve got many miles (and dollars) ahead of me heheh. Let’s get started!

    P.S. Can anybody direct me to where I would find my power outlet relay? I want to have constant power to my outlets, but couldn’t find the forum for 4th gens. Thanks in advance, happy to be joining the community.

    WOW!!! Super happy to hear everyone was okay and that everyone walked away with minimal injuries. Nice choice on a vehicle. I can’t help you with your question about the always on power as I have a 5th Gen. There is a section for 4th Gens I believe. Here is where to go for 4th Gens

    Welcome to the forum and I look forward to seeing your upgrades.

    Oh shit! Glad your sis and friend are ok! Freaking out is the correct state of mind in that scenario.
    And welcome. Paste up some pics when you get those 35s bolted on!
