    C76CED65-6770-410A-B1A0-C6B5A236DE36.jpg Hello all! Always wanted a truck but never pulled the trigger on one until now. Love the way the Tacoma’s look and they seem to last forever if you take care of them.

    Picked up my 2010 Magnetic Grey Toyota Tacoma SR5 yesterday from a dealer. It’s a 5 speed manual 4x4. Compared to the high prices online I’d like to think I got a great deal. Came with some accessories already installed that I would have put on anyways. Bull Bar, Nerf Bars, Rims and Tires, Tonneau Cover, Towing Kit, Touchscreen Radio w/ Backup Camera and Aftermarket Tail Lights. It was $14k with 95k miles on it which I hear is just breaking it in for Tacoma’s.

    The head unit didn’t work so they offered to transfer my Apple CarPlay unit from the 2011 Kia Soul I traded to the truck. Thought that was pretty cool. Actually got them to give me $6800 for the trade which I thought was awesome.

    Glad I found this site and looking forward to learning from all of you and participating regularly here.

    i think it’s the way it was parked. The spot it was parked in was angled up and slanted.
