    Just purchased a 2021 Tacoma 4x4 dclb trd sport. I have had full-size trucks my whole life. Just traded my 2016 GMC Sierra for the Tacoma. I know a am losing the limo ride of a full size truck, however, down sizing better suits my needs now. Although this is the first Toyota product for me, since 1999 I have purchased Toyota products for my wife. Her 1999 4Runner is still in the family. It was a hand-me-down to my son and now all his children drive it. Needless to say, I have first hand experience and admiration for Toyota legendary reliability. I joined the forum for info related to installation of convenience options. I am a retired engineer. My pastime includes attending college athletic events and automobile restoration and maintenance (1982 Jeep CJ7 and 1956 Chevrolet sedan). I will be using this site a lot in the future…Richard
