    Just picked up my Tacoma today. I had a 91 extended cab that I loved, and sold to a friend 7 years ago. He still drives it to work everyday. Been in full size trucks since then, and the most recent was an 01 Chevy 2500hd 4x4 with the 8.1. My payment will mostly be made through gas savings. I was averaging 7.5 mpgs.....hard to have a light touch with that much power. This one is an 06 4x4 with just under 40k, and it is spotless...for at least one more day. She's plain vanilla for now, but she's pure, and I'm happy. Glad to be here.

    Nice looking truck! Older but low miles! Scoop, color matched mirrors and a matching cap is good stuff!

    What did you pay?

    My local dealership is selling a 2009 TRD with 27k and a rusted frame for $27,999. No thanks I'll take my 2013 SR5 with 0 miles for $32k

    Just a smidge under 25. It's pretty much in perfect condition and the topper is a nice one. I'm guaranteed to put more scratches on it in a week than its had all together in 8 years.

    Couldn't agree more, and despite all the talk of parking challenges and such....this truck drives like a Honda civic compared to a 20 foot long, 8500 pound Chevy.
