Been reading threads on and off on the different trucks and it seems like the Tacoma was well regarded. My Xterra was getting a little long in the tooth and I thought I would take a look at some vehicles today. Hit a few dealers and ended up at Toyota this afternoon. They had one 4X4 that had just came off the truck and that is what ended up in the garage tonight.
Great looking and driving truck and had the features I wanted for the right price.
So thankful for the previous threads on vehicles and the Tacoma especially.

Looks nice.
If I see it I'll wave, when I roll through Clearwater in a week or so.

Have you read the owners manuel yet? Break in instructions were on page 68 in mine. Said not to exceed 50 MPH for the first 500 miles. Doing 70 on interstate I'm often passed by people with the stickers still all over their new cars who blow my doors off as they pass.

You chose wisely. I love mine, and I'm sure you will love yours. That is a great color, really sharp.

my Brother in Law in Ocala bought one about like yours last week. It has the 4x4, TRD off road package, including a built in inverter set up in the bed of the truck.
