    '14 Reg Cab 4WD
    I started with a '99, then got an '03, and now a 2014. The new one and all the previous ones have been reg cab, 4 cylinder, 4WD tacos. I think I got the last regular cab taco in Vegas! I love it already :) My first addition will be a camper shell and then after that I'll probably put some more offroadable tires on it. This is my first automatic though... I keep pressing the invisible clutch.

    I sure hope so. A few of my friends advised against it because they claimed it would significantly reduce the resale value, but I gotta have that short wheelbase!

    SabMotocross, I didn't know there was a Santa Fe, TX! I'm TX born and raised.

    Ha ha, yeah vegenaut...it's a small town south of Houston...named after the railroad that runs through it!

    Resale value is always a topic, but I don't think we buy Tacomas just because the resale value is good, but the fact that you have a reg. cab, and they are NOT going to be produced anymore; actually might up the resale value anyway!!!! :D

    Welcome! As long as that "invisible clutch" doesn't turn into the brake pedal, you'll be fine :D I do that in my parents' vehicles from time to time.
