    My brother cried when the buyer drove off with his 2004 tacoma. I have a 2000 tacoma too. I hope I don't do the same if the day comes.

    even though I swapped my 99 for an 04, when I traded it in, I felt like I was leaving a beloved family pet behind

    Why sell it? Mine will double as my casket. I'll rest in peace and my family will save $10k on funeral expenses.

    Be nice guys. This guy may love his Tacoma but he loves his wife/family more. He's doing the right thing, that takes strength and guts.

    Then again, should the dealership offer an Abrams with a lifetime supply of fuel, I might have to turn in the keys to the wife.
