    Finally found my Taco, I have been looking for the right one at the right price. Was expecting to get a 17 but found a 16 with 10k miles that had all the boxes checked. Truck.jpg
    Off Road 4x4 MT with the P/T and Tow package, even lucked out on the all-weather mats and Tonneau cover. The Crazy thing is, I am still deployed and haven't even driven it yet or even seen her in person. Had my wife go and she gave it a test drive and everything checked out. I haven't heard really bad reviews on hear with the MT's so hopefully, it doesn't turn out to be a Smitty edition.

    I know what most people are thinkingthats-a-bold-strategy-cotton-gif.jpg

    Sweet truck. Good find. Congrats. Hope the wife has a nicer ride, otherwise she might just decide she prefers the Tacoma.
