    I'm leaning very very hard toward getting a Tacoma TRD Off Road. I've been addicted for the last month or so to watching all these "Overlanding" videos on YouTube and I think it would be a great way to bring my 14 year old twins out of their rooms and off of their phones! All the videos I see there are lots of Wranglers, Tacomas and 4Runners. Why did you guys (& gals) pick the Tacoma over the other two?

    Welcome to TacomaWorld!

    I didn’t buy a Jeep because I wanted my vehicle to be reliable. As for Tacoma vs 4Runner, I just prefer having a truck over an SUV.
