    Greetings!
    I still have a 95 Tacoma with 280k miles that my wife and I use as a work beast. We bought it ('used with 60k) when our daughter was in 1st grade and she graduated college in 2017 .... we still have it! I recently co-purchased a 2018 Tacoma TRD Sport V6 4x4. (I finally talked my mom into a Toyota!!!) Our local dealer offers a Lifetime Powertrain Warranty and I figured I'd see if I can get a good 20 years or so out of this one too! We still have the '95, but it's starting to show its age. I worked as a Toyota Service Manager for about 7 years, but that was long ago. The vehicles didn't have bluetooth and cameras back in the 90's!! We are definitely a Toyota family! My work car is a 2012 Scion XB, our son drives a 2005 XB, our daughter drives a 2008 Matrix, and my wife drives a 2017 Rav4. I think we've had 10 (??) Toyotas over the years... including a Previa, 2 Corolla's, and 2 Camry's. I hope this Tacoma site proves to be helpful.
    I've enjoyed reading about others adventures and seeing their trucks.
