    Always park it in the garage, along with the wife's car. Unfortunately the 4Runner has to sit in the driveway and I hate to leave it out, but the new Taco took priority.

    He tries to follow me up the washes occasionally. He almost gets stuck every time. On this trip he had to replace the plastic clips in the trim pieces under the front bumper.

    I hope this is a joke
    Thieving bastards love to steal off the tacos.

    Well I don't have a garage, but I do have a carport (just got it in May and bought truck in Jan), so it's closer to a garage than not having one. And it makes a lot of difference when it's hot and sunny outside, truck's always cool and in the shade :D

    My Tacoma recently got demoted to parking on the road when because my garage and 4 car driveway are full up... D'oh!

    No cars in the garage right now tho, just stuff, so when I empty it out 1 car will go in there, maybe sell another and get the truck back in the driveway.

    Mixed blessing.

    Salty roads + wet chassis + warm garage = MAJOR rust problems.

    Nope.

    I have a 4 car garage and my 2012 TRD OR sits outside since it's the lowest on the totem pole... pretty sad since I love this truck.

    The truck stays in the garage along with the 4Runner.

    I don't have a Tacoma, but I have a 06 4 Runner that sits under one of those metal carports. Texas heat is a bugger!

    The Tacoma and the Road King share the garage. Wife's Accord sits in driveway - her choice, she doesn't like dealing with garage. Works for me!
