    This '87 started it all. Manual transmission and hubs, rubber covered floor, and bench seat. It was my Dad's and I thought it was cool as hell!

    Next was my first new vehicle. My '92 SR5 V6 had every option, however family life dictated we sell it (still looked like new 10 years later) and I always missed it.

    I'm back! Now that the kids are mostly grown, and life is changing again, I was able to get a new '18. The Tacoma is amazing, tons of tech, but still has that go anywhere attitude of the '87. It's been a long time.

    Agreed... but for something like this, I would gladly put up with it

    Also, I like how little went into the marketing back then. Just a pic and specs, no hype.

    My ‘17 SR doesn’t have keyless entry OR a lock on the passenger side. Since I cannot open the door for dates, I’ve pretty much adopted the zero fucks given attitude when it comes to passengers in general.

    “My truck is clean, and you get to ride in it. That is all”
