    Few weeks ago my dad got new brakes on his PT Cruser... I loaned him my taco for the day. ( The last few months i have been pushing him to buy a taco) The was to seal the deal!!

    He started looking at Tacomas today!!!! Im assuming a 2009 Dcab, SR5 Pre-runner.

    Im super happy he loves these trucks too!! :p

    I told him he can expect to pay between 23k and 28k depending on his options.

    nothing yet, first thing is new tires.
    My dad has had a Tacoma since 2001 with all three body styles in between. He is the reason I bought a Tacoma.

    My pop is also buying a Tacoma come march. His wife wanted a Rav4, I convinced him if you are going to buy a "truck" it should be a body on frame. I also asked him if he could imagine himself in the drivers seat of a Rav4, thats when he decided to grow a pair.
