Nice find!

Take a hair dryer and warm up those emblems to remove them. Warm them and then use fishing line or dental floss to cut through the 3m sticker tape.

Does it have the premium package also with leather and moonroof?

No premium package. Sticker was $38,843. Got it for $35,000+TTL+1.9% Toyota financing. It was 1 of 3 4x4 OR manual in Texas - one in Amarillo and two in Houston with different dealers. Really hard to get 4x4 OR MT around here.

What's crazy is when I got my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon SWB way back in 2003, every one of them around the Austin area was MT. Few months ago when I looked around, all the Rubicon''s here were AT!! I even saw many new Corvettes in showrooms with AT!!

Times have changed. Hardly anybody wants to drive a MT anymore. I don't plan on selling any vehicle I currently own so picking MT is safe. Otherwise I'd imagine that MT would drop the resale value quite a bit.

Great truck, thumbs up on the manual transmission.

Nice truck, but you should know that the color is Cavalry Blue (like the horse soldiers), not Calvary, where Jesus was crucified.

The way some on TW talk about the Tacoma, one would think the latter was true

Ive peeled the TRD off road sticker off and threw in some led bulbs I had laying around the garage. Plan to shave the emblems off once it gets warm enough to do so. Future plans are to tint the windows 5% overall hopefully this week then add predator bars, one roof rack, led headlights and fog light bulbs, black out the wheels. The WRX next to it is what I traded for it. Going to take some time to get used to it since I’ve mostly had cars besides having a FJ when they first came out and kinda had a ‘88 4Runner as a project.

Use a hair dryer and floss (or fishing line). It'll take about 2 minutes.

I would own one if i didnt live in the city. Its just not practical riding the clutch for 10 minutes of my 15 minute drive each day.

Welcome to TW, instead of the steps you might want to consider sliders, that way you only buy once.

Throw on some better shocks and a "Toyota" grill and you've got a Pro for waaay less!
