    I had a 2010 TRD sport and sold it in 2015. The only thing that broke was the clip holding the arm rest/storage area closed. Oh and the cabin fan was replaced for squealing. I am getting a 2018 in the next month.

    Welcome to the new folks. There is an assortment of age groups here and our resident young lady Susan who checks up on us to make sure we're doing okay. We have folks from the fifty thread stop in from time to time to see what there heading into:eek::notsure:. Sixty ain't so bad. Life is good.

    If anyone starts a 70+ thread please post a link here. I'd miss y'all terribly otherwise!
    Maybe that's what it is. I remember about 15 years ago seeing all these people buying big houses and new cars and vacations and thinking "how can they afford all of that? I make a fair wage and I can't swing that stuff." I only know one couple who went down that path.

    Hi Dave, the 70 thread is coming fast enough for me. I'll have to drop by the 60 thread for a cold one if one of you youngun's can help me up the stairs:rofl:.
    It seems the Milleniums are relying on the money they get from mommy and daddy when they pass on. Big house fancy car, expensive vacations and no savings for that proverbial rainy day. My kids are sol because the missus and I are enjoying what life we have left. Worked and saved and I drove junkers to work until i got my Tacoma in 07. Now it's time to enjoy.

    Welcome to the thread. Chair is to the right and cooler is to the left. Pick out a cold one and sit down for a while.

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

    I think I have the same information as you do. Jim is taking a long break from social media. I hope he is having fun with his pups and doing some hunting.

    Wish me luck I start our taxes today. Oh fun oh joy.

    You should have seen how wife+me got up the steps after her foot surgery! NO I DO NOT HAVE PICTURES and even if I did you'd never see them. :lalala:
    Oh man. This reminds of my mom and dad in, oh I dunno, 198--something. My dad called me up (email? internet? nope!) and said, "We're getting ready to spend your inheritance on a motorhome. Thought I should tell you." :laugh: By that time they had already been on the road for a couple of years and had decided to really commit. When I talk to them now those are their most treasured memories. So: DO EEEET!

    I'm 64 , bought a 2016 TRD OR Last summer... well it might have been summer before last, I can't remember. Anyhow I really like the thing, came out of a 2012 Tundra Platinum so it took a little while to gather used to. Somebody asked me the other day why I bought an Off Road at my age, I may be old but I ain't dead yet.

    I like the SKI Club Mark. I also joined and the wife and I are enjoying it. When you had your mid life crisis and got your tattoos, I was going through the same crisis. I finally pulled the plug and got one. Another is on the way.VZM.IMG_20180116_094752.jpg
