    What's Up guys,

    New to the forum, but have been around Toyota Trucks for a while. My dad had a Taco in 1999, a 4Runner in 2001, and we've gone thru some others since then, including a 2004 Tacoma, and currently a 2014 Tundra Crewmax.

    Personally, I am a BMW M3 guy, but am looking to purchase my first home, so I am shopping around for a more "work friendly" vehicle to keep for a couple years or so, either a 2nd Gen Taco or Previous Gen 4Runner, preferably 4x4 on either.

    Here's a couple pictures of my last M3 and Current:

    2008 E90 M3 Sedan

    I'm not looking to go crazy with either truck, but will definitely throw a modest suspension and some wheels/tires as well.

    See you all around!

    We are in the restaurant business so it's not heavy duty work, but I do have to haul product quite frequently. Tundra is my pops, Tacoma will be for myself. :)

    Not necessarily just a year. We'll cross that road when it presents itself. Lol
