    Haven't had my 16 truck but 3 months and so far have added the vent visors, found a white Century canopy and had it color matched, have black ABS letters coming for the tail gate, new pro grill on the way, & get a few other things also going to black out rest of the chrome.
    Orange snow shovel other side of truck and beyond that is my 05 Dodge 1 ton for pulling my Montana camper.

    I'm in the market for a bed shell. Yours looks great! What brand and model is it and how much did it set you back? Pros - Cons

    It is a Century brand used off a white 16 taco, gave 650 for it, traded a gun to have it color matched.

    hahah - noticed it was a Century after I read your post a little better. I see there is a dealer not to far from me. I'll check them out. Thanks

    Nice truck. Good luck with your mods. I've kept mine simple...an Access Cover tonneau cover, Michelin LTX/ AT2 tires, and the removal of the "wart" V6 emblem on the tailgate.

    My wife has had five Tacomas and put over 100,000 miles one each of them. No major repairs, no extended warranty. I finally decided to buy a Tacoma after having three Ram Hemi's...and yep, I miss the Hemi engine a lot but I like the size of the Tacoma

    I guess that I'm an "Old Man" too...age 76. But I still ride my two Harleys...a Sportster 1200 and a SuperGlide...no "geezer glide" touring bike for this "Old Boy".

    I'm 66 and have a 2016 TRD Sport Access Cab MT. I just went over 36,000 miles last week. at 35,750 miles I bought the Toyota Platinum warranty 7yrs/100K mile 0 deductible for $1200. Probably will never use it but it's peace of mind not having to worry about a mechanical issue popping up at an inoppertune time.

    You old folks and not trusting the updated technology ;)

    Congrats on the truck. I avoided the warranty just like others have said - it’s a Toyota! It’ll last a while.
