    not to mention the absence of a passenger airbag and key-kill-switch right up by the center vents that started in '98 i think

    cron, just curious if your truck still has the Tacoma floor mats? (not sure if you mentioned already) I am needing a new driver side mat from shoe wear (has not yet gone through the rubber backing) and no luck yet finding my color, I am thinking about buying some tan/oak ones and having them died to match my interior but not sure if that is possible

    Present back window-still a work in progress.
    I need a 6”-8” TOYOTA in white, to put in a black box on the stripes. As is, looks a tad random.

    Oh, I see. What I meant by "Stay on the topic" post was soliciting for more people showing their 95.5 trucks here. It has to be more then 28 out there :). I am not going too moderate the topic just because I started it.

    By the way if you haven't noticed I am updating the first post with the count and links to posted trucks. If I missed anything, let me know.

    so you were like 1 years of age when I was 24 and driving my new tacoma off the dealer lot, what made you decide not to get yourself your own new tacoma or are you looking at one, maybe a 2o2o model?

    will do as soon as my photographer gets to it, i don't yet have the right equipment to do so in any high quality :(

    Awesome truck. It's funny people complain about how expensive these trucks are now, but using the inflation calculators, that window sticker equates to about $35K today, not too far off what these cost now

    Well, in high school I was driving an 88 Toyota truck 22RE. (Loved that thing) It broke, so while I was repairing it I found this truck. It was in my price range and it also had A/C which the 88 lacked. Anyway I bought it & I couldn't be happier. I'm also not looking for a new truck.. Yet... :) Last year of college, so that took most of my money. I will eventually buy a newer Tacoma, soon I hope:fingerscrossed:

    not sure if 2o2o is out yet, I was just looking into the future
    dealer told me 6speed manual is what they have now but not easy to find, everybody wants auto :confused:

    apologies to the OP for straying way off topic :oops:
