    Heyyyyyyyy youuuuuu guyyyyyyyyys!
    [/goonies flashback]

    About me...I'm a TCU graduate with a degree in Business Marketing. I ran cross country and track for TCU the whole time I was there. I'm a gear head at heart and but I need a truck. My lifestyle doesn't work with a car. I build audio equipment and sell it as a small side business in addition to my "real" job at The Planet web hosting. My website for my business is http://www.StereoClarity.com. I'm a mountain biker, runner, builder, and all around pretty active guy. I noticed that the forum has quite a few different sections that all look like fun. I'm working on getting familiar with all of them.

    As of last week I became a the proud owner of a Speedway Blue Double Cab TRD Sport 4x4 short bed! First of all, this truck is just freakin beautiful, I love it!

    I bought the truck from Toyota of Grapevine. They were willing to work with me (kinda) and I think I got the truck for a pretty good price. With rebates and negotiating I was able to get the truck for $27,000. I traded in a pretty rough looking 2002 manual Lexus IS300 that had 98k on the odometer and they gave me $7000. They initially wanted to give me 5 for the car but I told them we wouldn't be able to do business. After some work on the internet to show them it was worth more than what they wanted to give me they agreed to give me 7k.

    I took delivery of the truck on thursday. I'm very excited to become a part of the Tacoma community. This place seems nice and I'm expecting to stay a while.
