    At 64, I waited a long time to buy a new truck (had lots of used ones!). I use my trucks as trucks, not as a "comfy" cars with a bed on the back :), so I got the bottom line 2020 SR. I'm very pleasantly surprised at all the safety features on the low-end offerings. I'm also a bit stunned by the omissions like remote entry and intermittent wipers; which is why I am here. My first look at this site proved very interesting, so I think I have a lot of reading to do! I'm glad to be here!

    Congrats! The best thing about a base model is that you can put on whatever option you want now.

    Welcome aboard! You will see many mods to trucks. Simply put, lots of people know how to spend your money! My 2014 Tacoma Sport
    did not have a temperature feature. So I bought a rear view mirror with both compass and temperature displaying at the side. It's a great
    mod that I enjoy each time I drive the truck!
