    Yeah I didn't think so

    Tacoma has great resale but not enough for Toyota to pay you to drive it ;)

    People tend to exaggerate. I've learned to just smile and nod. Everyone is so worried about how they appear to others. Just look at this forum, modded out trucks that never leave the street, lol.

    Because he's been making a years worth of payments on it, so less money owed on trade?

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    That's my guess. It's the only thing that makes sense. He told me the numbers once but I don't recall what they were.

    lol no when my 16 was falling under lemon law I was trying to get into a black 15 pro near me but was at a chevy dealer. Toyota got me into a 17 so far it's been good... hold onto that pro, last and best configuration of an awesome gen.

    Gotcha. I do plan on holding onto this one especially because I know how rare they are. Good luck with your '17 man, I really wish mine worked out for me because I loved everything about the truck other than the transmission shifting. Definitely not going to turn into a 3rd gen hater, both trucks have their strengths and weaknesses.

    Exactly. I've said that again and again here. This 2nd vs 3rd gen crap is ridiculous. Just different trucks though they share stuff in common.

    My truck is not modded out but I can guarantee you it has never been on a dirt or gravel road since I bought it new on 9 NOV 15. My truck is a true street princess.

    It's easy to fall prey to the TW joneses bug. For me I just learned it's a waste of money last few trucks unless you intend on using it. But to each their own.

    Damn it

    The $8800 I spent on RTT, roof rack, snorkel, ko2, new wheels, lift, sliders, bumpers, which I thought were required things on a new truck to go to the mall is a waste ?!!! :( :(

    TW taught me I need those things to be a real man and differentiate myself from the supposed sub human Colorado and Ridgeline drivers :(
