    Awesome.

    Your story sounds sort of like mine. Kind of.

    My truck is now our only family vehicle as my wife retired at 39 and basically quit driving. We sold her Rav during the height of Covid shortages for a mint and have made due with one vehicle since. She only drove about 4-5k per year.

    I have aa cabin and property that I tow my side by side or tractor to and have to drive across a creek to get to. I used to use 4wd a ton there, but my side by side does that now. I also tow a trailer for work stuff locally.

    I had 3 surgeries just pre covid and that caused me to be off work for about 2 years. That sort of stunted my trucks mileage since I didn't go to my land much or anywhere really.

    And I don't have Horses, I raise Ginseng lol. You're a better man than me, Horses give me the willies. Had them growing up. On an unrelated note, dude close to me got his arm bitten off by a Zebra today, so I guess Horses aren't all that bad.

    040 Was my first choice when I bought my truck in '16. I ended up with a silver sky metallic rig. I ended up needing to get all 4 door sills repainted due to rust...

    Out of the fire, into the frying pan I guess.

    White wasn't my first choice, but at the time it was the only TRD Offroad optioned how I wanted on the lot. Traded in a Super White truck as well. Guess I'm just destined to have a white truck. The black 2014 I briefly had was a fluke I guess :laugh:

    I heard the while stripes on Zebra in Ohio are from the lines of coke the Zebra’s mother did while pregnant. True?

    No, that's not true at all.

    Probably a crushed opioid.

    I've never seen a vehicle that looked bad in white. I've considered white many of times. Whiye does remind me of fleet vehicles but so does red and even black mostly when in commercial trim.

    a failed power steering pump, rear diff making noise, and dash/trim rattles in a 2023 vehicle are more than "just small issues".

    the rattles and squeaks are the biggest complaint i have. really, i am not overstating it when i say it is ufb. the truck feels like its gonna fall apart if i drive on a gravel road. an unbiased friend and my wife even commented on the 'loose' feel when they were passengers.

    i have had the access door panels off both sides to fix some of noises.

    i like the styling, MT, and i am fine with the V6 power and fuel mileage. however, the crappy materials and assembly are some of the worst i have seen and my tacoma rivals a chevy s10 blazer i once owned as far as fit and finish.

    i will not miss this truck when it's time to let it go. i am glad they hold their value.

    Check build thread!
    She wanted something manual, 4x4, convertible, and it had to be able to be able to be flat towed behind her class A rv. The choices were slim.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    I heard something about that. I was hoping for Aliens, though
