    2011 TRD Off-Road Tacoma DCSB
    Right now, I have a 2011 Tacoma, DCSB, that's pretty well equipped for our family camping trips. 3"ish lift, all Dobinson's, with JBA UCA, and quite a few extras to make camping easy/more enjoyable. We also like to give it hell pretty good off-road. Im in FL, so it's nothing crazy, but weve taken trips.to AR, TN, SC, NC, VA, etc. The bad part, is it's gotten a little beyond being a good choice for a daily driver. MPG sucks, too many miles on $$$ tires, etc etc.

    The owner of the company I work for has a 2003 LX470 that he's selling high mileage (180k). But knowing him, it was well taken care of, and I could get it for cheap. This was his 'vacation car" that he kept at his house in the Keys(FL).

    I don't know a whole lot about these but I do like them. Id love to get something practical to drive, and pick this up as a *toy" and sell the Tacoma. What should I look for? What options were there that you wouldn't want to live without? Most/least desirable trim levels? I need some help!
