Talking Newbie! Just purchased a new 2003 Taco DoubleCab

Hi all.
I am a newbie who just purchased a brand new 2003 Tacoma Prerunner DoubleCab in White (4x2, 4-cylinder with every option). I paid $18500 (before tax and license) which I think is a great price :p at Longo Toyota in California.

I will be doing some mods to my first truck (as soon as I get some money saved up) and will be needing a lot of help from you guys!! Thanks in advnace

Cheers!

Thanks so much for the welcoming words, guys and gals.
I really appreciate it.

A few questions. The first things on my mod list are 'bull bar and 'nerf bars'. Any suggestions as to where and how much I should look to spend on these? I came across a nice set (they look nice from the picture at least) or nerf bars at www.dealofsteels.com They are selling stainless nerf bars for about $170 plus shipping. Is this a good price?

As far as the bull-bar goes, I can't find anyone that sells ones for Tacoma. Any idea??
Thanks for your inputs !!

First off, if you plan on wheeling your new rig, I would wait on anything like nerf bars until you can afford a set of custom-built rock sliderz...many people on here will reccommend these...I wish I could afford them for myself.

Second, ARB is what I would reccommend for a "bullbar", I'm still not sure what people think of as bullbars but ARB is the way to go for a front bumper. I just wish I could afford one for my 4-runner. Anyway, not sure of the BEST place to get them but do a search https://www.yotatech.com/search.php and you should see many topics about ARB bumpers and where to get them.

Oh yeah, WELCOME TO THE BOARD!
