    Picked up my first truck on Thursday, 2017 Black Tacoma Trd off road. My wife and I love it. We have a 2013 Rav4 and appreciate Toyota's quality. Had a 2005 6 Speed Acura TL. Miss the 6speed a little but enjoy driving a truck much more. Having the room in the truck bed is great. Cannot wat to see what adventures our truck brings!

    Welcome to the club. You're going to start noticing EVERY Tacoma around you in sight. Then you will notice Fords, Chevy's, and Dodges. Then you will be thinking "I'm glad I got a Tacoma".

    For example I still can't get over the high rectangular Chevy wheel well, Fords look boxy, Rams look cool but I know they don't hold up over time.

    Also you'll probably spend time looking out of your window at your house admiring your Toyota, or wondering if and when it might get stolen (depending on where you live).:D

    Also you will find yourself parking way the hell away from the doorbangers when you have to go shopping. And then you'll wonder if you parked too far out because stuff can happen that way too.

    And then there's the wife going "What the hell has gotten into you".
