    Signing in from East TN. Picking up a '20 Tacoma for the wifeoff of Vroom (never used an internet based dealer before so this will be interesting), since her '14 Camaro is a little low with her ever-increasing knee issues. TRD Sport 2WD, hopefully she digs it. So far the only upgrade planned is a remote start kit. It'll be her daily so it's not likely it'll get too much more. We'll see. She definitely let out a scolding "NO!" when I found a supercharger and CAI, lol.

    Thx folks! This will be the first Toyota I've owned. Test drove an '18 OR and was really pleasantly surprised by its manners. Liked it a lot actually. I couldn't get the wife to take it out for whatever reason even though it's for her. But after the scoot, I'm sure the wife will love the hell out of it.

    So she got dropped off today. Looks perfect actually. Very pleasantly surprised. Raining so I can't really get under it or check out the paint but all the seams look good, everything underneath is clean. And it damn near got totaled on it's first drive. Wife pulls out of the parking lot behind me and some jackoff runs the light and hits the car coming across. Took the thing right off the ground too. In my rear view it looked one or both of the vehicles spun into the wife in the Taco but somehow missed it by, literally, 6". Whew. She's been through a lot in the last 6 months or so so it was good to see her smile and excited. Would have hated to see how down she'd have been if her new toy was trashed on her first drive and her husband thrown in jail for choking out a moron in the middle of the road.

    Anyway, she loves it as I'd expected. Loves how it drives, comfortable, etc. Two thumbs up so far.
