    Well my wife and I have finally pulled the trigger on a new Tacoma. We bought a 6 speed manual 2007 FJ cruiser for my wife in 2006 and have loved it. Its been a great vehicle but its 11 years old and was a base unit so it has very few options. Figured it would be a good time now to get rid of the FJ and into a new tacoma. My wife only drives manual so the new tacoma is a 2017 TRD sport Quadcab shorty, 6 speed manual. We don't have the vehicle yet as the dealership is still trying to find one for us. Our first choice is silver followed by white. Should find out tomorrow which one we are getting.

    Anyways, excited to part of this forum. I know I will have a tonne of questions for all of you so please bare with me!

    Regards,

    Derek

    Congrats on the new truck, they don't make a Silver Pro so it looks like you will be getting White.
