    New member here to Tacoma World, but not too new with Tacoma's. My first one was a 2001 Silver Tacoma PreRunner stepside. Loved it, but went German sport sedan after that. From there I bought a couple of Nissans (Frontier LE 4X2, and Titan 4X4) and I'm coming back to Tacoma for the all new 2016 (which I'm patiently waiting for at this time). It's not the easiest getting the all new model given my location since the easiest dealership to get to is in Seattle. But I'm making an adventure out of it and flying down, picking it up, and then taking it on the Alaska Marine Highway back. I'll post pictures of my travel back when I get word that I can actually travel down and pick it up.

    And so the wait continues... Hopefully soon!

    Eric

    Welcome Eric :wave:

    Where are you in AK?

    The AMHS is a great trip with beautiful scenery. Let me know if you have any questions. When do you anticipate the drive back? From Haines back through Canada to Central or South-Central AK is not a simple trip during Winter. Nothing to fear, just be properly prepared.

    I live in SE Alaska, I'm not going too crazy with the new truck. Catching the ferry in Bellingham, WA and taking it right to Ketchikan where I'll get off and board another to Annette Bay. Soooo ready, I sold my car labor day weekend so I'll be hoof'in it to work until then. Not that big of a deal since its only a 1/4 mi., but the wind and rain can be a b*tch! Here's to hoping the dealer can get in what i want sooner rather than later so that I can get it! It's been a LOOOOOONG wait, but at least its finally coming to a close :)
