    My first ever vehicle was a 2004 Tacoma DoubleCab Prerunner. Since then I've owned a bunch of different cars, trucks, and SUVs, including a 2014 Tundra CrewCab at one point. Now, 15 years later, I just came across a beautiful 2018 TRD Sport Access Cab 6' Bed 6MT with 45k miles at a local dealership and couldn't resist. I've been looking for a newer manual Tacoma for years, but never found one that quite checked all the boxes. Today was the day! I can't keep the smile off my face when I'm rowing through the gears. I currently daily drive a 2023 Golf R 20th AE 6MT, but now I'll almost certainly daily the Tacoma and make the Golf a garage queen. I honestly think I love the Taco more :) I was too busy driving around town all day with an ear-to-ear smile to take pics, but I'll try to get some to post tomorrow. I just ordered some Hankook Dynapro ATM tires for it as the tires it came with are spent, seemed like decent value for the money. Excited to be back in a Toyota truck, and looking forward to gradually modding the truck over time!
