    Well... I guess it wasn't on my MSN feed like I thought it was in my Microsoft Edge feed... on thedrive.com http://www.thedrive.com/news/7691/this-toyota-tacoma-has-driven-nearly-a-million-miles

    Edit* it fell off my feed after 10:00AM yesterday and I had to search for it... What is funny is that all the articles out there NOT ONE of them actually has a first hand account of it. Not even a dealer toting that it hit 1,000,000 or 988,345.

    It's all over the news and I just saw it on google news.

    However, OP is showing "stock news photos from internet".

    OP, can you a take a selfie with truck in background or new pic of truck that is not a news feed pic?

    Or just a new pic today of ODO? :confused:

    Okay if y'all claim you saw it on a news source, PLEASE POST A LINK!

    So far the only confirmed account of the Tacoma is on theDrive.com

    If you type "Tacoma" into Google and click news all that comes up is that one theDrive article and a bunch of news about Tacoma, Washington :goingcrazy:

    Believe it or not I think that is correct, I am the original owner of my truck and last oil change the manager came up to me and said if I hit 1,000,000 miles the dealer or Toyota would give me a new Tacoma and they have a truck 2 months ago that they did this with another customer. I would not have believed it if the manager had not told me this,
    My luck is the offer will expire before, when or if I hit a million.
