    Hey all, been around for a few years, had a 2012, nothing crazy, build thread here https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/jermoids-2012-white-dbcb-build.243787/
    ended up going over to an 2013 FJ cruiser, which I loved but Toyota called me out of the blue and offered me $1000 more than I paid for the FJ a year and a half ago, so I decided that I'd try out another Tacoma. The FJ was starting to feel a little small with the new baby and travelling with our black lab. As much as I love the old black or white trucks, I wanted to step out of the box a bit and went with the 2016 TRD Sport INFERNO, loving it!! I know there are many pics of the same truck on here but here we go, along with the FJ.

    I was under the impression the FJ had more rear seat room then the Double cabs?

    the FJ did have a little more room, not much, but with the Tacoma I can put a cap/canopy on the back and throw luggage and the dog in the back for long trips.

    Congrats! FJ resale value is truly insane...

    Stunning Tacoma, wish I had that color option.
