Ass man for sure anything more then a handful is a waste

 

Can you fit as many tacomas in a parking lot into a picture? I wanna see how many tacos live in Hawaii.

 

I'm guessing not many, because apparently they are going for a premium in Hawaii...

Everyone knows about my awesome, take-no-bullshit Asian-American female boss...

The first time she ever rode in my Taco, I was about a year away from being her employee. She was just a friend. She was a bit hung over from the night before, and I was driving her to the home of a friend, where she'd left her car keys. She gets in my truck and she's like "I didn't even know they still made cars with rollup windows..."

My boss has owned two 4-door sedans, and her current vehicle is a Honda Element. She's never in her life had a vehicle with crank windows!

 

This one was a small get together

This was at a hardware store by accident lol

 

I wish I could wear flip flops all day long.

 

Dude, post this on the "I think it's pretty cool when other Tacomas park near each other" thread.

 

I have

 

I’m either in slippers(flip flops) or bare foot. Even though I have a Nike sneaker collection of about 25-30 pairs

 

It’s not uncommon to be at a stop light and have 5 or more Tacoma’s there with you.

 

It's not uncommon to be at a stop light and have 5 or more F-150s around you here in Texas.

 

Why do the Hawaiian people like tacomas a lot?

A guy I know just bought a brand new Audi R8 with an MSRP of $209,000. He is making monthly payments of more than $2,500 a month! That's pretty much a mortgage, on something that's gonna go DOWN in value!

 

Ouch! He must be pretty well off!

 

More or less. One guy I know paid $178K cash for a new Rolls-Royce back in 1990...

 

Here's a white 2013 RC 5-lug with the automatic transmission and under 60K on the clock. Having been in accident where a drunk driver hit me (obviously not my fault) that resulted in the left rear fender and rear bumper being replaced, I can tell you that the cost of replacing those parts is $2,200-$2,600 (including paint and labor). The cost of the tailgate is probably about a thousand bucks including paint, so now we are at almost $4K. A new front fender is probably about a thousand bucks including labor/paint, and a front bumper is like $300. So that's a little over $5K. A front headlight is like $100-$300 depending on where you go, so now we are at $5,600! That inner-fender/apron thing is probably another grand or so. So, let's just say for the sake of argument that the damage is $7K. The airbags are not deployed, the interior is nicer than the interior in my truck, and no mechanical parts seem to be damaged. Looking at this truck, anyone can tell that the A/C condenser and radiator were not damaged. This means that the A/C probably works just fine and it will not overheat. This truck is probably worth $12K-$15K in perfect condition, so why would they total it?!?!

Doesn't make good sense to put $7k into a $12k truck.

 

When my truck was worth that much, my body guy said that if the airbags didn't go, most insurance companies would probably pay for up to $8K in damage before totaling it. This is all hypothetical of course...

The most damage my truck has ever gotten in one accident was $2,200, and that was not my fault!

 

can we see the frame?
