    Especially your money.

    My neighbor has a later model WRX Si, and I almost expect to see his kids in the yard naked for lack of clothing, and starving to boot. Not a week goes by without something new on that car. In a recent yard sale they had, I wandered over to see what they were selling, and sure enough, about a third of the stuff was stock Subaru WRX parts. If you'd had a chassis and engine already, you could almost have built another car with the stuff he was getting rid of.

    Careful, or you'll be doing the same thing with your new Taco, there's a mountain of goodies available for them.

    Your in good company. 70% of 3rd Gen Tacoma owners have never owned a truck either.

    Welcome.

    Sorry for the really late response! My family and I moved to Washington and us being people who enjoy the outdoors, it just seemed to make sense to own a truck where it rains frequently. Something about throwing our camping gear in the truck bed without worrying about it getting a midsize SUV/crossover trunk dirty was really appealing.

    Haha, I was in the same boat when I got mine in 2016. I never thought I needed one, but having the capability is nice to have
