    yesterday afternoon I had to run some errands and I ended up seeing a 3rd gen with two 4th gen tacos behind it on a random backroad in Wallingford. The 4th gens had TX plates but I couldnt tell if they were dealer or some kind of special plate. Either way, the trucks looked good, but I still like my 3rd gen more, visually at least. I am sure the 4th rides nicer, but Ill not know for a long long time

    Wait for the rest of the week - everything you service will be soaking wet. :-(

    I was listening to a review of the 2024 Taco over the weekend. As the guy walked down the side of the truck he said "this is the long-bed edition with the 6' bed".
    All I could think was 6' is not a long bed, 6' is a standard bed. Anything less than 6' is an SUV without a roof. A long-bed is 8'.
    <rant off> (sorry if I'm offending any 5.5' bedders.)

    I'm absolutely offended, since I couldn't get a "long" bed with a manual. The longer bed would be nice, for sleeping in

    If anyone is looking for a great condition 2022 TRD Premium DCLB with under 15k miles, I traded mine in for a full size truck. PM me and I'll let you know where it is.

    Speaking of wet cars, what happened with that Lexus? Was that traded in and sent to the auction?

    Yep. Haven't seen that car at all. Let's hope it was sold out of state.

    Started noticing something strange with my truck. The hazard indicator (when you turn on the headlamps, not the actual hazards) flickers.
    Is there a bulb or LED back there?

    Looks like it's that time of the year where I pull my WeatherTechs out and put in my carpet mats.
