    Hey all, just wanted to introduce myself here...

    I just bought my first car, which is a 2011 Toyota Tacoma v6 PreRunner 5 speed auto, Double Cab, Long bed, with the TRD Sport Package.

    I got all of this for 29,500 brand new.. how do ya think i did??

    But i'm definitely loving the car, ESP the double cab and i'm so glad i went long bed instead of short.. if your gonna get a truck, mite as well get a TRUCK... and plus didn't need the 4x4 since I'm from southern california..

    but what do you think about my car and how much i paid for it????

    your honest opinion would be greatly appreciated..

    Thanks~

    i swear i just posted ???? sorry if double post

    welcome and good job... you did better than i did... out the door i paid 31,500..and included some parts (running boards, trd air filter, xzilon crap, bed extender)

    I got the exact same TRUCK... originally wanted the 4x4 but after thoroughly thinking thru, i thought it would be best to stick with 4x2... im from so cal as well and seriously how often do i do 4 wheelin?... the occasional camp and stuff a 4x2 will suffice.. .plus more weight, more gas... so all in all, good choice and get ready to spend here! im around my $1k mark spent... about $1.5 pending products.. and definetly more to come (suspension in mind).....enjoy

    Also sounds like a sweet truck and to me I think its a good price especially for a 2011, my 09 with 23k miles cost about $22,500 but theres other details in that story. Sounds like a good deal though and got another prerunner here on TW! Careful though this place will suck you in...

    WOW, I didn't realize how much prices have gone up since I bought my tacoma (2007 model) back in Feb 07. I paid 26k for an ac trd or 4x4 and the dc lb was $1k more.
