    Yea I heard Virginia was bad especially for out of state vehicles go as far as speeding goes. Everyone down here is super nice and I actually prefer it to the constant grumps up in my area lol, I just prefer to be around happier people. Phoenix and I keep getting comments about our trucks so it's nothing I'm not use to. I feel like my truck doesn't stick out like a sore thumb down here like it does in MA which I'm fine with

    Mine sure doesn't stand out much. Nobody would even notice the subtle lift unless it was parked next to an identical one or they really knew Tacomas. I like it that way. Almost every one of my modifications looks like it could have been factory.

    My truck had a lift in it when I bought it lol So it's always looked different than others. Plus I tinted the Windows and put a muffler on 2 weeks after I bought it

    Mine was owned by an older guy beforehand. Incidentally, I ended up meeting him through work since we work in the same field basically doing the same job for a different place. Remembered seeing his name written in the owner's manual in the glovebox, saw him get into a new Tacoma when we left and it all clicked.

    It was bone stock. Just had the OEM tube steps and a tonneau cover on it. I don't think he ever used it as a truck. It was pristine when I bought it.

    Mine was definitely used as a truck before I got it. But the weird thing was the first owner registered it as a rental and averaged 13k miles a year. 2nd owner registered it commercial and averaged 1,800 miles a year

    Possibly up to the mid-upper 50's in the lower Pioneer Valley this coming week???? I may break out the motorcycle. It would be warmer than when I put her away in November!

    Guy down the street just traded in his MGM 2nd gen for a red 3rd.
    Chrome bumper and pretty nice looking wheels.
    Want to stop to snap a picture, but I think he may call the cops on me for creepin'.

    Someone down the road from me got an MGM AC SR5. I know everyone up to their house (not necessarily by name, but I'd recognize them), but have no idea who they are.

    Noticed you in time to wave today!

    If I look at the camera where I park at the right time, I'll see 5 Tacomas out back (counting mine). Especially funny since there are only about 7 total vehicles that park back there.
