    does turning tires to black wall out count? How bout added snug top rebel.
    Also, Toyota has a deal with Costco or SAMs club, they have predetermined price schedule for members. I learned this AFTER I bought mine, could have saved $2000.

    If you have a Costco nearby it might be worth it...Costco is only $50 a year...seems worth it to potentially save thousands.

    How does it work? Does it only apply to certain packages?
    Just have a Costco membership and then show it to toyota salesman when picking out your truck?

    Enter your zip, log in with your Costco Membership number and start spec'ing out your ride. I ordered an DCSB 4X4 OR with TRD short-throw, exhaust, and a bunch of other goodies so it took about six weeks to build but well worth the wait getting EXACTLY what I wanted for a great price.

    I'm in SE VA too, Chesapeake, to be specific. You're right, we never get anything good here, and there's not a terrible lot of offroading to do around here. I guess if you don't really use it, you don't really need it.

    Sorry for the delayed response guys. I had to get some sleep before work.

    Here are some pics of my new Taco in my driveway with the poor old s10 in the background.
    (See attached)

    I ended up paying ~34 out the door including the 7 year warranty. Sticker price was in the ~32 area but I don't have the numbers in front of me right now.

    Nice! You won't regret getting 4WD. The best part, other than actually using it, is when you're not using it. You don't even know you have it! Truck rides and drives just like it isn't even there. You're kidneys and fuel bill will thank you.
