    Well hello all. I got my first Tacoma today a 2014 with 93034 miles. Its 2wd lifted with Lt305/55R20 . I just love it... back to Story I drive 13.3 miles to my home and back it up the driveway where i always parked my Ram 2500 and my honey says park it in the garage!( Ram never fit to tall) so i pull out on the road and back into our stupid brick mailbox. bust taillight bend bumper and mess up bedside . All in less than 2Hrs of ownership. Allstate is not happy with me.
