    I'm a happily married man with two daughters. I use trucks as trucks and this is why I picked a Tacoma when I wanted more cab space over my 1995 Toyota pickup 4x4 with the extended cab. I loathe the way most trucks come from the factory so tall that I can't reach into the bed to retrieve items. I notice most of these "trucks" have fancy covers over the bed because the cargo area is useless for most because it's a hassle to climb in. Tacoma's are perfect. I do most of my own home repairs/ remodeling. I cut firewood and am an amateur blacksmith. I love my 2010 Tacoma TRD Sport. It has leather seats installed at the dealership, which I hear is hard to find.

    Have any pics of blacksmithing projects that you're particularly fond of? That's a cool hobby.

    I'd like to see some too. I like to make some metal architectural features, but aside from welding it's mostly heat, hammer and bend. I would like to see what you do. This is something I would like to spend a little more time on when I retire. I can get a bit fixated on Forged in Fire.
