1st Taco, 2016 Double Cab Limited

This is my first brand new vehicle, always used to purchase 2-3 year old cars and I love my new Tacoma. I leased this one, couldn't beat the employee lease I got on it and so far I am really enjoying driving it. Actually very surprised and impressed by the fuel economy too. The past 3 months I am averaging higher MPG compared to my other vehicle 09 Infiniti G37X. Averaging 21.5 mpg on my drive to work compared to 19.7 in my G37.

Only a couple modifications so far but that might change, who knows. So far I have Installed LED Low/High/Fog lights and the light output is incredible, have not been flashed once in the 3 months I have had them installed too.

 

Welcome to the club!

 

Gotta love that leather in the limited! How're you liking the interior? I may have to modify my off road some day

 

I love the interior on the Limited. I was originally going to do a TRD Sport but then after seeing the interior it sold me on the Limited Taco.

 

You can't do many mods to a lease, right?

 

Welcome to TW!

 

The only time it is an issue is if you decide to turn the truck back in at the end of the lease, if you do then its just a matter of taking the aftermarket parts off and returning to stock. With the Tacoma its never smart to turn it in on a lease as there is always equity in it. Still deciding what I might do, might buy it out at the the 3 year mark or sell it right before the lease ends and get a new one. Working in the car business for a few years, I'm seeing the Tacoma resale values are ridiculous here in Colorado. 3 year old Tacoma's still sell here for 32-34k when their original MSRP was 36k.

 

That's crazy high. Although I just bought a 2013 for what I thought was way too much, but every time I try to find a comparable one for less, I can't.

 

Congrats on your new Tacoma and welcome!
