    The teamsters did kind of suck. The only good thing about them were the health benifits. The only reason I quit was because I got into the IBEW local 126 so i'm a union man

    Congrats on topping out. The inside local here (local 5) has like 700 guys on the books out of work and our outside local (126) has like 150 out. I hope its not that bad up there

    That's awesome! I'm sure you've touched many trucks on this site!

    How are the benefits and such at Toyota considering they refuse to let the UAW in?

    Benefits are great, Lots of perks (saved a TON of money on my 2012 Taco). Pay is one the highest in San Antonio. I was a corrections officer for the State of Texas for 11 yrs and DOUBLED my monthly pay just by going to work for Toyota within the first month of employment. But then again correction officers in Texas do not make a whole lot of money to begin with (Thanks Rick Perry). And yes i would venture to say I probably have had a personal experience with alot of the 2010 and up Tacomas on this site.

    That's great to hear! I've always heard they took good care of their people. I assume you guys are on a 401k plan and not a pension, correct?

    We have a Money Purchase Pension Plan (which you are automatically enrolled in on hire date) 100% funded by Toyota, as well as a 401K plan.
