    2F1114A7-7368-4648-94D2-15749D149306.jpg Traded my 2016 Subaru Crosstrek for this amazing blurple truck! I got lucky I just waited for two weeks and I got it at MSRP without the “market adjustment” nonsense! I was expecting to wait 4-6 months when I went to the dealership to order but my salesman said there’s a blue one allocated to this branch and nobody reserved it yet. I just placed a reservation fee for 1 grand and now I’m a happy Tacoma owner. I’m thinking of bronze wheels as my first upgrade next month. Will it look better with this color?

    Congrats. Beautiful truck. This is just the beginning. Drive it for a bit, then start modding. Watch that credit card balance though. It adds up fast!!

    Congrats, I am also on my first and came upon it in a similar way. It seems the market is softening up making it a tad easier for buyers to find these due the economic uncertainties.
