    My first truck, '13 2.7 5spd 4x4. Got this after I bought my house. Needed a truck and just tired of wrenching on GM garbage.

    Traded her in on a '15 SR 2.7 5spd 4x4. Went a little mod crazy as I found TW about the same time.

    After tiring of the 2.7 and stiff ride I just traded in for this '17 Sport AT. Loving this truck. Also in the family is my '85 Celica Supra, and wife's '16 Camry XSE.

    My last was a 2004 4Runner, I had it for 11 years before the Taco.

    But the most fun vehicle I had was my 02 Jeep Wrangler TJ. Had that for 5 years and sold it for $3k more than I bought it for, but still wish I didn't.

    This is funny stuff,
    I'm personally not getting any wood over the 6 speed xmission in mine, but even with that its still a better built truck.

    I didn't think it was to damn funny paying over $28,000 cash for a new truck. Felt like I was kicked in the gut.. But hey... it is all over now...

    The last truck I had was a 1995 Tacoma. I had it from 1997 to 2002. Kinda wish I'd kept it. 20 years to the month after I bought that one, I bought my second!

    The 2017 DCSB sport is my first truck. I've driven others of course, but this is my first.

    From 2015 TRD sport MT, to 2016 TRD off road MT. I miss my 2015 :( long story short I was sold a new truck that was in an undisclosed accident so I basically drove the 2015 for free for a year and got a 2016 no charge. Still wish I had a 2015 but not one in an accident.

    Found a couple pics. Both of these were in 1999, IIRC

    What a good little truck. I wish I'd kept it a lot longer.

    I think this was the day I spent like 10 hours washing, waxing and cleaning the truck. I'd already had it a couple years. I put the SUPERCLEAN on it. I mean, I washed it, clay barred it, washed it again, waxed it, then when I cleaned the interior, I unbolted and removed the front seats. Seriously, I took the seats out, cleaned them outside of the truck, then cleaned the carpets and all the interior surfaces. That truck looked new that day!

    Just thought how "matter of fact" why you hated it was funny, not the financial experience.
    just one of life's expensive lessons, we've all had them.
