    Today I'm sending out my last payment for my 2012 Tacoma. I'm 2 year early and dam does it feel good. I buckled down and paid $2,000 for about 8 months to get this done.

    I'm finally free of payments!!! :ballchain:

    Just had to share my excitement.

    Looks so much better paid off :yes:

    It sure does feel good to own a paid off truck. Now instead of making payments, that extra money can be Taco play money!!!! :taco::taco::taco:

    Congrats, that is impressive, to pay off a vehicle in roughly 3 years. I'll be lucky to get it mine paid off in 5 years at the rate I'm going.

    Thanks everyone. Felt like I would never get to this point. It took so much not to buy anything stupid while I was paying off the truck.

    I want to level out the truck. Anyone have any suggestions?

    My two cents, leave the spacers, take the coil overs.

    I've heard great things about OME (old school FJ80 and Gen 1 Taco off roaders) and their Taco kit seems like a great value for the money. Honestly had I known the exact issue with OME and the '15 model year on some trims and how to resolve it, I would have gone with OME.

    I didn't want the spacers. I've only read bad things here on TW about them. Was looking into Bilstein adjustable.

    Congrats.

    Consider now making car payments to yourself into a savings account. That way in the future you should have the cash to pay for the new vehicle when your ready.

    I am. I'm saving up for a house right now actually. I don't plan on buying another car since I have another car in the driveway already.

    Just wanted something for myself since I haven't really bought much this year.

    That truck is the ideal color combo and sweet with the sport package. Like it! Love mine, got a better deal on a dark blue SR5 but will still envy your hood. LOL
