Tacos in St. Louis area

Oh I could and I wont. I have a tiny shred of dignity.

 

Owner needs to add those headlight eyelashes

 

Does anyone on here have an Instagram account?
Here’s mine but since I don’t have my Tacoma yet, there aren’t any Taco pics: @hawkins_lab_18
BTW, I’m debating whether I should look for a used 3rd Gen or buy new. What do you guys think?

 

Welcome to TacomaWorld. Where in the St. Louis area are you?

 

Unless it's going to have a lots of miles on it (more than the standard 12k/yr), buying a 1 or 2 year old Tacoma is going to cost just as much as a new one (assuming you don't go with MSRP).

The only real benefit from buying a used one is if you find one that has some mods that you were already looking to add. You can easily negotiate down the price so that the added mods don't really add much to the price of a stock Tacoma.

 

If you're going to pay the price of a 3rd gen with barley anything depreciated. Just grab a new one. Though 2nd gens are nice too.

My insta is in my sig. If you're using on your phone, just turn it sideways and sigs show up.

 

Thanks! I’m in Crestwood.

 

I guess I should have introduced myself. My name is Don. Two weeks ago my wife and I bought a 2017 Camry to replace her car. When we were at the dealer I was looking at the Tacoma and was immediately hooked.

I’m currently driving a 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac with 156k miles. Not a bad truck, but not very exciting either and it’s going to be time to replace it sooner rather than later. I’m going to have to wait though before I can upgrade as I’m going through a career transition at the moment. Looking for a carpentry or woodworking job.

I’m hoping I can meet up with you all the next time you have a get together.

 

Mind blown!!

Didn't know the sigs showed up when you turn the phone sideways. Thanks for making my life easier!

 

Those are good trucks, and of course you are welcome to join us.

And while we are talking about mod day, what’s everyone’s opinion of May 20th which is a Sunday?

 

Hey look its I have way too much money cruise

In the valley

 

Some people's tacos from this site could be in that lineup

 

True

 

Tell them about how scenic Lost Creek Road is.

 

Lol I'd love to watch them go down that.

Btw we should do another run with the nice weather

 

Some people are hitting Moonlight tomorrow. Any and all are welcome to come.

 

I've got the van in stl. Dont think work would be happy if I try to wheel it.

I'll be out next time

 

Thanks G.T.! I will probably need to do some light body and interior repairs to get my Sport Trac ready to sell.

Does anyone in the group have experience with bondo on fiberglass? I want to learn how to do it but I’ll need to take it somewhere to have the rear quarter panels painted.

 

What is Moonlight?

 

Off road park.
