    Couldn't agree more with the above posters. Enjoy the truck my friend. Get over the buyers remorse part and move on.
    Tacoma's are not inexpensive used or new, Fact. Your going to love it.

    There is always someone with a better deal. This is always a bad question to ask. As far as history of the truck. This won't give you everything but you can go onto the toyota web site into the owners section. Create an account and put the vin into the system. If toyota has anything it will pull up the truck history including where it was sold.

    Thanks for the replies guys. It helps. This is the first time I've ever spent more than 15k on a vehicle so it stung a bit. I love it already and already swapped out the nasty steel wheels for some TRD sport alloys. Looks pimpin now. Here is a pic pre - alloys

    I already signed up with Tacoma and when I spoke to toyota on the phone he was able to tell me all sorts of history but once I logged myself on none of it was there. When I called back they said I needed to get a dealer to release the info????

    Truck looks good man. I think anytime someone spends any large amount of money on anything there will always be some doubt at first. Give it some time and you won't even think about it anymore.

    Like someone said someone will always have a better deal then you, but as long as you feel like you got what you wanted then it's all good.

    Why they gotta be nasty? I love my steel wheels. Simple. Rugged. No bullshit. Nothing pretty, just utilitarian as fuck.

    Once you register, you can access all maintenance records from dealer performed services. You can also view recalls, recall repairs, etc. You cna also input your own maintenance records to the system, for example, a self-performed oil change.

    Be aware that their site is a little wonky depending on what browser you use. I couldn't get it to work quite right with logging in and so forth using IE.
