    Hi All,

    I'm moving from Reno up to Seattle for a sales job, and needed something a bit smaller than my Ram 1500.
    I drove an 07 Taco as a company vehicle for a while, and it was a fine truck. I like the resale value, the quality, and the reliability. (I used to sell Toyota Forklifts -- they put the same stringent standards on the industrial side)

    So anyways, I sauntered down to the dealership to see what was on the lot, with the intention of also checking out the Chevy Colorado later in the day. "I swear I'm just going to look."
    Long story short, last day of the month, and after some dealing, I drove home with this:

    I'm very pleased with the vehicle aside from being used to the get up and go that my 5.7 hemi had. From what I've been reading, once the Tacoma settles in, it'll romp if you get into the accelerator more.

    And yah, I took it (lightly) offroading the second day I owned it. My built jeep goes away this weekend :(
