Thanks bud. Let me answer some of the questions i'm probably gonna get...

1) Hankook 255/75/17 on FN Six Shooter wheels
2) I have zero reliability concerns, thanks to the 2.7L and manual shift.
3) I get 20mpg no matter what i do, thanks to the tires. I should be in the 22-23 range.
4) Tint is 35% on front doors, 20% everywhere else.
5) The 2.7L is fantastic and I don't regret it one bit.

The utility package only comes like this, no rear sliding window. I prefer this way better. More secure, more visibility.

I paid $23k from Sunrise Toyota, my favorite toyota dealership. It's on Long Island in NY but it was worth the drive!

Nice ride. 2.7L dual vvti nice choice.

The V6 guys would be saying you should've bought the 3.5L but they're probably busy at the service department on their day off.

Welcome to the bearded taco club.

I have been really enjoying my utility package Tacoma. I even used it to haul some old mortar to the dump.
