Congrats on your new vehicle!

Go through and read the sticky “What’s your favorite discovered feature” and take the time to read through your owners manual. Doing these helped me learn a lot about my GS. And most importantly, enjoy driving your vehicle.

Nice, congrats on the purchase, that is a rare color not many out there as more than likely that was ordered never been one on the dealer lot.

Thanks everyone. Traded my truck in january for this one and i've actually been searching for a few months.I was between red and blue but i started to lean blue and noticed how rare it was. This one was the only one i could find that was a F sport within 300 miles of me. Been lurking on here and theres alot of useful info so im hoping to stick around and see all the cool builds on here.

I did the same thing in January, after looking for around 6 months... took a bit to come around to selling my Frontier. Very nice Tacoma Rich, but dang what an amazing blue on your GS, congrats.

Thanks man. that truck never left me stuck or stranded so it was kind've hard for me to let go but it was time i moved on from it. will probably look into building another one soon after doing a few things to this one.

im loving the blue of this GS. just wish i could've found one with the red interior but im still happy with the car nonetheless. which lexus did you end up getting?

Found a 2015 F Sport with 25k miles for a decent price and finally pulled the trigger. Still miss driving the truck, man it's weird being so low to the ground lol
