    Hi to all you Toyota owners! My name is Colin and have been cruising around Atlantic Canada for the last 30 years in Toyota trucks! My garage currently has welcomed a 2017 Tacoma Double Cab 4x4 V6 with 6 spd manual. It sits next to my 1993 25th anniversary edition 4x4 Xtra cab SR5 V6 with 5 spd manual. That truck I've owned since 1996 and currently showing 542,000kms. Both trucks are stock and plan on adding a few things to the 2017 in the near future! Hope to be using all your good opinions and advice before doing any shopping!
    Cheers,
    Colin

    Pic of my 1981 4x4 from the late 90's. Had to give it a taste of the "Ironman" since there was a small block under the hood! That was a fun truck!!!
