What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

I wish I got that much money to play with! I'm looking more in the 15k range.

 

That's going to make it difficult for the year range you are looking for. Tacos have crazy resale value.

 

I know. They're there (I'm perusing CL at work right now) but not in the exact configuration I want. I'm just being patient

 

Patience is a virtue lost on some. You'll find the right one sooner or later.

 

Luckily I may have already found it! 2010 access cab, 44k miles, 5 speed with a 4 cylinder. Waiting on some pics, so we'll see. Thank goodness because I'm impatient as hell. I'll wait if I need to, but I miss owning a tacoma!

 

When I was looking for mine we found a 2010 for 16k at local dealer. Took a ride, checked it out and we wanted to deal. I was trading in my beat up Dakota. As we're making a deal the salesman says 'I'll grab the keys and you can take it for a spin' I was stoked. It was a dark green TRD loaded. A couple of minutes later he comes back and says.. well, you see that couple over there? They just bought it.

I was crushed. Like when your girl breaks up with you type of crushing. I shed a tear that day.

 

Oh man, that's terrible. When I traded in my tacoma for my subaru last september, I almost cried on the drive home. If this truck looks good in the pics, I may road trip out this week since I don't have to be at work until thursday and seal the deal. Then I can go back next weekend with the wife and pick it up.

 

Should have kept the one u had.

 

Shhhh, I know. At least now I get TWO vehicles and can now have the truck as a dedicated camping/trail truck. Plus now I have more experience under my belt and can build it up more efficiently this time since I know what I want.

 

Got mine there too... good stuff!

 

Is that Mickey Thompson side biters?

Edit: nvm I can see now they're the TRD rims

 

Secondary times a charm!!!

 

Used it to jump a co-workers car.. Taco saves the day again

 

I use Rain-X on my vehicles as well. I think the dealer must've put it on my '14 when I picked it up on May 1st. Saved me the time/trouble.

 

When I was talking with the salesman about 'looking at' the '14 Tacoma that I was interested in, I asked if I was first in line, and he said yes. The truck wasn't even at the dealers yet, but was coming in the next day. I've lost on deals before, and it isn't a good feeling. Glad it is a stand-up dealer, as they could've sold it to someone else anyway and told me to pound sand.

 

Nice truck!

 

Well if that's retard logic I buy a full set of skids and then buy the valve to make life easier for the techs at the dealership

 

I started paper work on a '16 on a Saturday. Called the dealer Monday morning and said I'll be there tonight to pick it up. When I got there after having to drive for 2 hrs my salesman was selling it to somebody else. My neck got really red really fast and I blew up on the sales dept.

 

Nice older Tacoma. Time for a road trip?

That's so clean!! I could never get that truck. That thing is too much of a gem for me to chop it up and take it wheeling.
