    Just wanted to say Thank You to all members on this forum. Best community for Tacoma, and maybe even all truck owners. TacomaWorld helped me over the years build my Taco into something my wildest dreams would have conjured up when I was a kid. I spent close to $30k on all materials for various modifications, and I was able to install them all with the help from TacomaWorld; the real guidebook. I’m sad to say that I sold my Tacoma two days ago for a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro. Main reason for the trade: Backseat space for two carseats. If the Tacoma had only just 3-4 more inches of depth between the rear backseat and the front seats, I would kept my Tacoma. Still sad about it. But I’m also grateful to have the means and opportunity to own a super nice Tundra.

    Also, I feel like I went from a likable rebel fighter Tacoma to a darth vader empire black Tundra…

    Wish I had time to sell it to someone here. Dealer took it for $32k. Tacomas are the best. Still thinking about going back to the dealer and taking Taco back home during this 7 day return policy period.

    I’d say my biggest regret is getting rid of my 2020 Tundra trd off-road 4x4 crew max now that I have 2 kids. But I’m still able to make it work luckily. Congrats on the beautiful truck. Long live the V8!
