    Hello,

    I've been hunting for a Taco for sometime now and lurking in these forums, researching extensively, feeding my inner OCD monster! I'd been looking for a Gen 1, but they are very hard to find in good condition without too high of mileage. I've read a lot about the Gen 3, and with some of the issues with the new platform, I decided to focus on Gen 2.

    I just out put a deposit on this '12 TRD OR AC with only 3,000 miles on it, always garaged. Local trade-in from an older gent who could not get out as much as he'd like. Got a really great deal on it.

    It is up in WA state, I'll be flying up there to pick it up and road tripping back to my place in Santa Barbara, Ca.

    The Mojave is on my short list and I'd really like to do an extended trip to Baja.

    First mod will be a cap of some sort.

    Cheers,
    DJM
