    It was a bittersweet Saturday when I handed the Tacoma keys over and drove off in my new Super Duty.
    But life goes on and situations change. That said I have a console organizer and Meso coin holder I will give away if anyone is local. I'm in Austin, TX
    Thanks to everyone here at TacomaWorld; what a great ride.

    I would gladly pay you for the coin holder. I can even send you a UPS shipping label if you were willing to box up and take to a UPS shipping point?

    Congratulations! I take it you needed something bigger and beefier than the taco?

    You ask a good question. I retired, relocated and got grand kids. I have a full size off road truck and 18 ft trailer that has been in storage for several years because I wasn't able to use it. Now I can and want to be able to yard it around. The Tacoma can manage incredible feats but not towing that mess.

    I have no need for a monster of a truck like that, but even I can't help but drool over that thing. Enjoy the new ride!

    Congrats! The Big 3 keep trying up to one up each other regarding engine torque. 1k ft pounds of torque out of a V8 diesel is axle twisting for sure. Enjoy!

    I read that the current F250/F350 now share the same cab shell and doors as the F150 model. The new Ford CEO, Mr. Hackett, must be behind that cost cutting move as he is trying to pinch pennies at Ford wherever he can.
