    I just brought home my new Taco - a 2010 TRD Sport! :D

    So far I love my truck and I love the white. I let my 5 year old son have a say in the color because I hope to give it to him when he is old enough to drive. He picked white because it looks like a stormtrooper. :p

    I have wanted a Taco for some time, and I stumbled upon this board a few months ago and have been lurking since. If I wasn't sold on the Taco before, you guys definitely pushed me over the edge.

    Thanks! I love this site!

    Are you sure about this decision? Your truck might suddenly accelerate and kill you, you know.

    Congrats on the truck. I'm usually not a fan of white, but after hearing your stormtrooper reference, I'm seeing it in a new light. :)

    Go for it. If a truck is what you want, I don't think you can go wrong.

    Very nice!

    Now the fun begins...

    I definately recommend Weathertech floormats front and back. Bed mat is a must, steps, and maybe a 4" trim on the front mud flaps. Oh and eventually get the rear spring TSB. I could never go back to the 3 leaf setup. Enjoy!
