    Wow is all I can say...I recently purchased a 08 4WD, DC TRD Sport Taco. The whole ride home I kept thinking was where have you been all my life. Of course I didnt say that out loud since my wife was with me, I am already in the dog house talking about all the lil toys I want to get to make this a beast...Love the site and the useful info that you have all been posting. Keep it up!

    While you BS'n Troy I worked with a OSC Carlos Vargas in Japan a couple of years ago. IIRC he should be retired or on his way out the door soon. Not sure if we're talking about the same guy but hey it is a small world

    LOL
    I just thought I would throw that out there. Was he from Wyoming?
    Last time I talked to him he was about to retire but it seems like that would be a common name and I never recall hearing him talk about Japan. That would be too funny if it was the same guy. Haha. I will have to text him.
