    Aloha!

    I won't forget this day, Saturday, December 7th, 2019 -- a day that will live, but not in infamy. It's the day I joined our Tacoma community, one day after taking delivery of my 234K-mile wonder.

    After buying two LX470s (1999, 2000), I have grown to have immense respect for the finest offroad vehicle company in the world. I figured I'd need a pickup here in paradise, and consider myself exceptionally fortunate to have found one in great condition (a V6 with many new parts, and a superb TracRac atop the bed).

    I vow to be a respectful reader and hopefully soon a regular contributor.

    Mahalo!
    Raphael

    Dennis, that's the way I feel. It's been well-maintained and is running strong after almost a quarter-million miles. Parts of Maui (including where it's been for most of its life) do get very wet, but not salty wet. Hence, no significant amount of rust. After all, its a Tacoma; what other than longevity should I expect?
