    Traded in my 05 and bought the 13 raptor after the frame upgrade and loved it. Beat the shit out of the Ford and it ran tough, just couldn't handle the cost of fuel. I was spending about 600 a month in gas. I have to daily a 4x4 so the new tacoma was it. Just took a little loss on the trade in but oh well. Fixing to off road in a few weeks with my fellow raptor peeps, and going to put the baja to the test. Man im ready to have some fun.

    Plus the raptor tax is alot more than modding the tacoma, I don't miss URD's arrogance on the phone though. lol

    nice of them to park it in the handicap spot.

    but then again my idea of a real handicap person wouldn't be at a car dealer anyway.

    sore spot for me when I see someone in a wheel chair missing 2 legs and some old fart takes the parking spot and walks into the mall while the real handicap has to park somewhere else.

    oh forgot to add, nice truck. Baja tx trd. warden has a tx off road trd.

    Why would you get rid of the Raptor for a Tacoma? There isn't that much of a difference in gas is there?


    Nice azz Supra by the way, still have it?

    36 gallon tank was costing me about 110-120ish to fill up. Was getting about 11.5 to 14.5 gal per mile.

    Big power difference....I like the interior of the Raptor, but not the reliability side of it.
