    Thank you for the introduction tcBob. I'm a life long supporter of the toyota brand pickups. My 1st being an '87 then a '95. Bought my 1st new one in '03, an extended cab. Totaled it in '09. Came across an identical one in '19 which has sat in my garage as a backup, should my current daily driver fail, which Im the 2nd owner of an '03 base model 4WD 2.7L 5 speed with 425,000 . The rust will probably do it in before the mechanical failure though I'm sorry to say. But with all that said, I just love these dang trucks and I'm happy to see that they have gained such a proud and loyal following. Toyota tough! And thanks for having me. Much love.

    It's nothing fancy, but it gets the job done. I'm about to give the old girl a makeover on it's suspension. Ive had one too many surprises mid way through a turn for my liking.
