    My spider sense was tingling today. I had a feeling there was one there. I almost called them this afternoon.
    Looking forward to hearing you report.
    What model is it?

    They also have an access cab base in west Springfield, haven't test drove it yet, or even seen it. Been a test drive every time I've stopped

    So when i first walked up to it i actually said out loud to myself "wow, its pretty nice in person". From the side view, it looks very similiar to the second gen. The tailgate is much, and i emphasize much more beefy. Its twice as thick as the second gens. The bed is pretty much the same configuration. What is really nice is the interior. It felt very comfortable, everything was within easy reach, and it just looks good. The ride was also nice. Very solid built/firm. I also didn't hear any rattling, squeaking, or plastic noises rubbing together like the second gen is famous for. The truck was a 4x2 2.7 liter. Not the most powerful, but still did just fine. The ETC power button did make a noticeable difference in power when you step on it. I did not like the looks of the front end, nor the rear very much. I wouldn't say its absolutely hideous, i just think the second gens look better. So in conclusion, is the 2016 a nice truck? Absolutely, i can't wait to start seeing them on the road every day. Would i let my 2010 go for a 2016? Hell no, i love my second gen and its a keeper. Funker, let me know if you try it out, i brought the odometer from 17 miles to 35 miles. Its also fun watching all the tacoma drivers on the road rubber neck when you drive by:D20150929_172949.jpg 20150929_174816.jpg 20150929_174820.jpg 20150929_174836.jpg 20150929_174853.jpg 20150929_174903.jpg 20150929_175000.jpg :D

    First thought was why did they end up with a 2WD?

    Then I realized that an access cab 4x2 is the lowest end one now--no more 5-lugs, so it makes a little more sense.

    i find it astonishing that somebody would spend 26,0000 + on this 4x2 truck. Come 6" of snow on the road, it'll be deadlocked. I got my tacoma so no conditions will stop me :D
