    My wife has been driving MY Tacoma way too much and never touched her Accord, so I got her a '06 LR3 HSE the Saturday before her first Mothers Day. I couldn't pass up the deal. This thing is loaded!

    Best part is I get my Toy back!

    She has been the best. It works our well with the new addition. Gas mileage wasn't an issue since she only drives about 12k per year. Needed the extra space for baby, random crap, and dogs.

    The shocker was getting 20mpg on the Intersate this weekend!!

    I've looked areound and there are a few sites. I won't mess with it "much". I am not allowed to do anything to it until it's payed off or 3 years go by. I'll drive it on our trips and do all of the up keep. The rest of the time I get with my Tacoma and work truck.

    Now I can start on Sliders and Skid Plates!

    :laugh:. Well I am making up for about 3 years of no gifts or crappy ones.

    Yea I read as much as I could about the LR3 pros and cons over 16 hours while I slept on it. Had the complete service history and nothing major done. Very clean.

    Only thing I didn't look at were the tire choices. I'm stuck with the 19" rims due to the brakes. There's about 5 or 6 to pick from.
