A fellow snoho eh? Welcome. That is one of the best color combos for black wheels IMO (of course I am biased though).

nice, your truck looks pretty clean. how many miles are on it? you could probably still expect plenty of service and fun out of wheelin your ifs for a few years..

The V6 is a great engine if you appreciate and take care of it and talk to it real nice. Just remember its not a race car, its not a V8, it likes OEM parts, its a Toyota, if it doesn't last 300,000 you have to ask what you did wrong...

Ok to be serious, like I said its not fast or super crazy powerfull but it seems if you take good care of them they will keep that truck moving in the right direction for a long time.

It's a good looking truck... just beggin' to be modded.

The 3VZ has it's highlights, but it ain't gonna get you nowhere fast. I keep threatening to put a V8 in my wife's truck, but the truth is, I can do a heck of a lot to keep old faithful running strong rather than doing the swap.
