    my first car, saved for a long time to finally afford a brand new 2001 Tacoma, limited double cab. Added the TRD supercharger at the dealer and it was the best option i could have ever added to it. Also added custom rims which made it perfect IMHO. I had to sell it 2012 and missed her ever since.
    I bought the carfax report and it showed the taco is still in the south bay. Last had smog done in Palo Alto in Jan 2021.

    hoping someone here may recognize it as there isn't another double cab, silver, supercharged Taco with these rims on the planet.

    If you happen to have seen it or know the owner pls have them contact me. When/if they ever sell it, i'd like the opportunity to bring her home.
    happy to pay $$ (name your price) for anyone who gets the owner to contact me or let me know how to find them. (or DM me if you have any ideas on how to track 'my first' down. happy to pay $)
    if i'm lucky enought to drive her again, i know exactly what song i'm playing first........Peaches & Herb - "Reunited"

    you can send a form to the DMV asking for exactly this, basically they will send a letter to the owner and ask if its ok to share their info with you. I tried and got nothing helpful back but worth a shot! its like $5 or something

    @BrownMike, to my understanding the DMV will not do this.
    Where did you hear otherwise?
