Chris Fortunato

My name is Chris Fortunato, I'm from Arizona and the driver of a 2021 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Off-road which I call the Fortune Taco. I love to hit the trails and make time for new adventures when I have free time. I became an author on Trail Tacoma because I love modding my truck but I also love to teach people how to mod theirs too.
