    i need to rant a little.
    i'm out looking at my TACOMA in the garage.
    i don,t have a taco, i have a tacoma,
    when i go to the dealer i don't look at 2010 tacos i look at 2010 tacomas,
    i painted and hung my badges today, it says tacoma,not taco
    we have TACOMAS not TACOS.
    Seeing taco makes my brain hurt,its only 2 more letters

    oh, and i got a funny story about painting my badges, to be continued

    Tacoma, Taco, Yota It's 6 of one or a half dozen of the other. Life is too short to ponder over such a small thing!

    Let me guess- You get upset about folks calling GTOs "Goats" too right?? Who cares if someone else wants to call their truck something you don't....It's no skin off your nutz. Get upset about something worthwhile...

    It is fine if other people say it. But if they talk about MINE, I would rather them not call it that.

    I guess it isn't as bad as the Colorado owners calling them "Cally" (sp?).

    it makes my brain hurt when one uses a comma (,) like an apostrophe ('). Also, in another thread you said "I don't no" when you really meant "I don't know". It's only 2 extra letters. :p

    Just kidding. it doesn't really bother me. Neither does "Taco" or "Tacoma". But just showing how nitpicky one can be.
