    I’ve worked with them before trying to get them to locate a manual trans cement double cab. Guy I was working with said he found one and it would be there in two or three days. Long story short, guy strung me along for a week before his final email to me after trying to get him to respond for days was. “It’s in gods hands now”. Vowed never again to even give them a shot at giving me a price on a new vehicle. The guys name was Ralph. Even more greasy than most Toyota salesman. Most Toyota salesman are scum. But this guy takes the cake.

    Well that’s great, you always hope you can run into a non-shitty dealership. I appreciate it sir, I’ll be sure to give that one back to Ralph if he gives me a shite deal.

    New Tacoma owner here. I was excited when I found the Sarasota Bradenton posts, but it looks like nothing ever came from it. Lets get something going.

    Hey, welcome! Congrats on the Tacoma.

    I'm still up for Taco Tuesday somewhere. Or something else. It would be nice to meet some local folks with good taste in vehicles.

    I'm also a new Tacoma owner. This is my first truck it's pretty awesome!! I am down for a meetup and also quick questions on leveling kit;

    1) Any recommendations on where to have the work done? I live in Ruskin to the tampa/sarasota area works.
    2) Is this going to give me problems at the dealership when I get maintenance done? The truck is brand new.

    I have a 6 inch BDS lift (I know, Boooo, grrrr, yuck, go to Hawaii) with 34s. Last week I had a leak from a cam seal. They liked my truck and didnt say a word about anything. I think as long as the broke stuff is not from the accessories you are good.
