    Kids are back to school and no more take or pick up. Freshman and Junior. Junior has been driving the Tacoma since January but now they are both at the same school.

    He will break that rule. He has been taking very good care of it. Washing and waxing, etc. This truck does not stand out at their school. Parking lot is filled with BMWs, Mercedes, new mustangs, etc. bunch of spoiled kids there:D

    Why? Have you seen what kids wear lately? He was voted class clown last year and he got this shirt at a BBQ place in Idaho on vacation this summer. His teachers loved it.

    Kids here in the northern Va area get sent home everyday for wearing the American flag and one kid had a Zombie shirt on he was sent home.....

    Well the truck is still in the family. We needed the 4wd truck for our cabin in the winter and hauling the trailer full of dirtbikes. It didn't make since for me to keep driving it into the ground and buy my son some other vehicle when I could buy a sports car and let him drive the truck. Win Win:D

    They look like great kids, & great kids come from great parenting, (which is much lacking in our society) I am sure they appreciate what you are doing for them. Having kids is easy, Parenting takes some work!!! Congrats! jmop
