    Just bought my first Tacoma. I have been a Dakota owner/driver for for over 20 years. My Taco is a 2002 Prerunner SR5 with 78,000 miles on it (that was the key for me buying it). It's a 4 cyl. so not much giddy up, but I know I'll love the gas mileage.

    Thanks for the welcomes.
    The only mods I want are a cold air intake and a dual out exhaust.
    Nothing like moving more air!

    ...and maybe some strategically placed stickers...

    Nice truck. It looks really clean. Hopefully it will be good for many more years and miles!
    Since it's an older truck, I would change all the fluids and filters. Make sure to change the fuel filter also.
    I would also check all the rubber hoses etc. If they haven't been replaced they may need it.
    Enjoy the new truck!

    Everything was detailed at the dealer. New fluids, etc. The engine compartment looks brand spanking new. It was garage kept by previous owner.

    Great looking truck. I had a 2001 SR5 Manual Extended Cab that went well beyond 300k. Be nice to it and it'll be nice in return!
