    Hey, I was shopping for a 4 Door V6 pickup for a year, and finally buckled down and got a White 40k mile (previous fleet truck) '07 V6 Taco TRD PreRunner SR5 Sport, Double Cab and Long Bed. I needed something to tow the family and the motorcycles and this was best offering all-around IMHO.

    I negotiated the asking price of $21k down to $17k, and the only issue was a carfax accident report, apparently repaired front bumper damage as a repaint is evident. I couldn't find any other indications of damage and the dealer said the truck passed all inspections.

    So far I like the truck a lot, now I need to start shopping for accessories. Starting with bike loading and strapping gear. Joined the forums to educate myself on my new truck. Excited to have hauling/towing capacity for a change. It's been a decade since my last pickup.
