    Doubt they're concerned with that more like unapproved stuff on school grounds I'd imagine.

    We're in the ghetto, but the kids here aren't bad. The police officer sits in his office all day, because they're isn't a lot of action around the school.

    @Taco critter

    I am at 92,350 miles as of this post. By my estimates, I will be at a little over 97,000 miles by the time I drive out to Carlisle in August. Do you think it's possible I could hit 100K before then?

    I average about a thousand miles a month, give or take. A round trip commute to work and back (detail shop) is 20 miles, so I put 80 miles on my truck per week right now, just driving to work! My dad, on the other hand, puts probably 20,000 miles a year on his vehicles for work. His 2013 Honda Pilot Touring 4WD, purchased new in May 2013, had over 98,000 miles on it when he traded it for a 2018 GMC Yukon SLT in December 2018. He bought the Yukon as a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle with a little over 8,200 miles on it, and it now has almost 11,000 miles on it after less than two months!

    Now I definitely don't want to get rid of my Tacoma right now! Shame, too...

    I still like the Colorado! Especially the ZR2 with the 2.8L diesel engine! Sucks it's not available as a stick shift!

    Also, considering that in late 2018 I met a guy at the Wawa who had a 2016 Taco with 120K miles, I'd say 92K on a 2010 Taco purchased in September 2009 is about right if not ever-so-slightly lower than average.

    Does all the air-conditioning stuff still fit under the hood with it that low?

    The idea of lowering my truck has grown on me, but I want to do it without completely rerouting the air-conditioning system...

    I've already spent enough money fixing the A/C!

    Doing a body drop would totally "de-truckify" it anyway.

    I didn't say I didn't want to drop it...

    I said I didn't feeling rerouting or relocating anything under the hood!

    Yeah taking it to that level isn't really practical for a daily driver. I had a bagged S-10 for many years but it was my weekend cruiser / show truck.
