    Been a member and longtime lurker for some time as I enjoy the positive vibe and contributions this forum puts forth. I've gained a lot of knowledge from many members on this forum but lack any real contribution myself as I'm a BMW tech and enthusiast that frequents BMW forums and need a reliable truck for DIY and occasional mild hauling. To the point, situation has changed and I'm in need of a full size truck and am currently putting my Tacoma up for sale. My question, is there any exception to the classified posting rules for minimum 50 posts? No issue whatsoever if that's set in stone, I would simply prefer this truck is given the chance to sell to a community of devoted Toyota fans instead of throwing it onto Autotrader. Thanks in advance!

    Easy to get 50 posts. You can do it. Just start talking in random bs threads.you already have 3 just 47 more.

    Well, I didn't wanna be "that guy" since the rules also state that if you just make trash posts to bump yourself up to the minimum of 50 the ad would be deleted as well. no big deal, I agree with the rule to keep riff-raff from "craigslisting" trucks on a purpose built platform for tacoma enthusiasts!

    It's not trash posts if you actualy converse with others.

    That's a fair point, I also realize I prob should have just created an intro thread as well. Regardless, I'm Alex. I'm located in Oklahoma City, this is my second Tacoma and as much as I love the truck, I need more towing capacity and comfort features than this truck offers.

    Well, the misses likes to go camping, or as I like to call parking... my in-laws are gifting us their lightly used 25' camping trailer.

    I’m also in the market for a full size truck, do you really like the GMCs?

    I went and looked at the 2018 1500 and 2500s and left very disapointed. I didn’t even bother test driving them.

    Can easily get 50 posts just bs'ing in here.

    Just talk about how you want a drop bracket lift lol


    In all seriousness, i wish i had looked into the payload capacity of my taco, 1200lbs comes quickly when loading down for camping.

    Also wish i had gotten an access cab but i thought better to have and not need than need and not have

    I haven't test driven a new truck as I don't think I wanna drop that much money, but my best friend has a '13 Sierra SLE that rides and drives really well to my liking. Disappointing to hear about the 2018's though!

    As was I, I went in to look and soon as I got in the truck I had the “this feels cheap feeling”. The screen, controls and overall interior just left me wanting more.

    I ended up narrowing my search down to either an F150 or F250. Having a hard time deciding.
