Any Tacoma Owners Over 50?

63 Ford Falcon convertible followed a year later by a '66 Mustang Coupe. There's actually a 63 Falcon convertible sitting outside a repair shop a few miles from me. But, my 96 BMW Z3 commands enough of my time and energy now.

 

I'm 65. My 3rd gen is my daily driver. With (prescription) sunglasses people see the unusual color of the truck (quicksand) before they can take a look at me.

 

I just turned 50.... can I join the club now?

to be upfront I am developing signs of CHS, CSS AND CRS.

 

My wife has heated seats, my daughter has heated seats...I actually LOVE them (seats and girls)...I've had lots of back surgeries (martial arts, car wrecks, horses, etc) - MAN do the seat warmers feel nice on my back...like relaxing on a heating pad, easily puts me relaxed and ready to sleep...no heated seat on my truck, not as relaxing but I stay wide awake (HAHA). While I do like the back warmers, I'm not as crazy about the seat cushions being heated; always worried I have pissed myself .

 

HA - I just replied the same thing (thought)! I do love the back warmers.

I'm 66 and this is my first Taco, however it's my 3rd Toyota 4wd pickup. Started with a new '81. Took that truck boonie bashing any chance I got. (sold due to money issues) then a '73 Jeep Wagoneer and went to an '87 Toyota 4wd. Put a plow on that one. I loved those pickups! Go anywhere and haul anything you could put in them. I'd load the '87 with cord wood to the top of the cab and it drove just fine. I don't beat my Taco like I did the other trucks back in the day. Too old for that sh*t now, but I do miss it!

 

I turned 66 back in November. First Toyota pick up was 1971 Hilux with the front turn signals on top of the fenders, 2nd was 85 2wd pick up, 3rd was 2002 Tundra TRD offroad A/C 4wd, 4th 2013 Tacoma Prerunner TRD offroad, and 5th is 2017 Tacoma TRD offroad 4wd. The last three were bought new. The '71 kept burning valves, the rest of the trucks have been really great!

61 hear on my 3rd Toyota pick up first a 1990 short bed deluxe 4x4 to a 2005 TRD Sport DCLB to my current ride a 2009 TRD Sport DCLB and to think my first ride was 1956 Ford pick up

 

66 here, this is our 1st Tacoma gotten last year. In my younger days we were into HotRodding, blowing away my paychecks to go faster and never thought I'd get into cosmetics like I do now with the Mall Queen, lol.

 

I do see a lot of young Tacoma drivers, but I know people over 60 who own Tacomas. I have a 2020 SR5 DCSB with 4WD. I'm 62 years old and plan to drive this truck a long, long time...

 

Age is just a number.
We should all be lucky to grow old.

 

74 yrs here going on 40.

 

Love it man!

 

This is the best pic I have of the 81.

 

Loved my '81! Small enough to fit, rugged enough to go. Loved the torque of the 20R.

 

All those Tacoma owners that you see that are 30ish or younger? In 20 years, they'll all be around 50 and most will still be driving trucks.

 

In 20 years, they'll all be around 50 and most will still be driving the same truck.

Fixed that for ya!!

 

I’m almost 50 8 months to go!! My wife did tell me I act like I’m 12 the other day
