    but not to Tacomas! Last Friday I traded in my 2004 Limited TRD Off Road Tacoma (185K miles, 5MT w/original clutch!) for a 2023 CPO TRD Off Road double cab (11K miles w/6MT). This new truck is going to take some getting used to after 20 years in my '04 (purchased new). New truck feels substantially bigger and rides like a 70's Cadillac compared to my '04. I like the size of the '04 better, but I couldnt pass up the 2023 as it has a 6MT along with some nice options (nav, heated leather seats, tonneau cover, moonroof, led headlights & fogs, CarPlay, tech package etc.). So far I've ordered a set of Rek Gen mud flaps and a Blendmount rearview radar detector mount for my V1. I'll also will be looking at some kind of rustproofing (NHOU or equivalent) for the underside of the truck. Hoping this new truck will be as good to me as my '04 was...
    Cheers!

    Thanks for the warm welcome(s)! No, definitely not enough $$$ as a trade!! However, I probably kept her for 5 years longer than I should have. 20 years of NE winters had taken a toll on the old girl as she needs a differential housing due to leaks from corrosion.

    Welcome :hattip:change is good. Nice new truck :thumbsup: I've had my SR5 since 2004 and the reason I can't bring myself to ever part with it is because it was everything I wanted in a truck and I'm as happy with it now as I was when I bought it. Just crossed 370,000 (original engine) today.
