    I bought my truck used from my dad, he used it as a company truck with about 1000 pounds of equipment under a large contractors cap for the first 46,000 miles.

    I now use the truck as a DD as well as for my Job. I have a Lawncare buisness in the summer, and in the winter i plow snow (with an atv). So my truck has a trailer on it year round. When im not doing either of those, im taking scrap metal to the recycle yard for extra cash, or driving out an old gravel road for the daily commute to college!

    Heres a picture i found right away, i bet there are more of the truck loaded up but ill have to look.

    Post some of your own

    When I bought my truck in June of 10 it looked like it had been used as a daily driver and nothing more then a mattress had been put in the back. I'm changing that.

    There has been a lot of trimming around the power lines recently so I've been getting some good hauls on a lot of green, heavy wood for next winter
    DSCN1157_6d0d89bec780c06a93d856c4239a09008c5329ac.jpg

    This load pushed it almost all the way on the rear springs w/ the TSB
    DSCN1159_ad5e15863922be385f3b777faa5cf815dc5e3552.jpg

    I bought this truck to haul my trailer and motorcycle. here is the old rig
    DSCN1112_3c0d80eac1307a8063a2d20947ddde573a7e9b16.jpg

    and here is the new rig
    Taco_TT_fe1c011f6df46997d2e0c1c29a29fbc00b8d8f65.jpg

    If you haven't seen this it is climbing with the new rig in WVA. I said it is a 5-6% grade but it is more like 7%. The truck did fine and I was at 1/4 throttle.

    This little truck has done everything I have asked of it.

    I LOVE MY TACO!!:)

    Nice pics of the trucks guys! I think the majority of the trucks in the "working tacoma" thread are silver, probably because the paint doesn't show all the scratches.
