    After trading in my 2008 Tacoma Trd 2wd 1 year ago to purchase a van for the family. I am about to pick up 2013 Black on Black 4 X 4. I have had so many cars in the past. I know they are just material things and shouldnt matter. but I was actually depressed a little. Seeing the Kids comfortable in the van was all worth it, Kids come first.
    The person who purchased my truck actalluy lived 3 blocks from me, Horrible feeling, Anyways I am back!
