Hello from ABQ

Just found this site last night while browsing for Tacoma info, wanted to sign up for any and all information I could find. I've got a super white '02 X-cab 4x4 SR5 auto, great truck. It just turned 30k a couple of weeks ago. I found this used in '05 with 19.4k, couldn't pass it up, it was like brand new; for that matter, it still seems like it...I will post up some photos when I get some taken. Am on the fence about trading up to a new Tacoma, but it's hard to part with this one due to no problems whatsoever. The only advantage I can see on a newer generation is more room...this is my 5th Toyota truck, third Tacoma, best by far...

 

welcome!!! thats really low miles for that truck......cool!!! kep it for a while if it isnt giving ya any trouble, unless you just need more room!

 

With all the experience you have with Tacomas, you can probably add as much to this site as it can provide.

Welcome to TW.

 

Welcome to the forum!!

YAY!!! Albuquerque!!!

I love ABQ, grew up there, and still have tons of friends there.

Welcome welcome welcome..




And OMG do I miss my red and green chile!

 

Welcome to TW! Good luck with your dilemma!

 

I can ship some chile, either variety or both, to you if you need it bad enough!

 

That's the way I'm leaning. I don't really need to upgrade anytime soon, it's just how those shiny new Tacomas catch your eye... I also drive a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, that's my offroader, so the Tacoma is pretty much my everyday ride most of the time, and the only mods on it ar a Line-X bedliner, I had that done a couple of weeks after I got the Tacoma, had to have it. That's a mod I would do over again in a minute. Still looks like the day it got applied . The other is a 2" receiver hitch. It came with a camper shell, but I sold that soon after, never used it.

 

Thanks a TON for the offer. Believe it or not we do have BUENO red and green chile in the little #1 buckets, but its just not the same when I have to cook it myself.

NOw if you can send me a few restaurants that would be awesome!!

-Perea's OMG!! good stuff
-Sadie's
-Los Cuates
-Frontier

Dions pizza would be great too!!!

LOL thanks for lookin out.

 

My pleasure. There's nothing like a cool summer evening on the patio at El Pinto on north Fourth Street, and Monroe's has the best red chile in town, with shredded pork, and Garcia's green chile stew with homemade tortillas...oh boy, now I've done it. I'm going to have to stop by one of those places on the way home tonight...

 

i hear that. as soon as i save enough money up, im taking the bed liner outta my 04 and im gonna get a line-x spray in. they are indeed awesome!!

 

OMG I forgot about that place!! Osuna street, correct?

 

Welcome to TW!! Chihuahua and Albuquerque are Sister cities (according to officials anyway LMAO) been there a couple of times, glad you found the site!

 

Yup, Osuna east of San Mateo. There's also one on Lomas near 10th St.

 

Well, three months later, here's a photo of my truck:


(Don't have any off road pix...)
Just got through putting new Alcan rear leaf springs to replace the flattened out stockers...
That's Bailey going for a ride.

 

Looking good man!
