    Had a Chevy Colorado that I loved but was totalled in a wreck. I didn't have a lot of time to look for a new truck (I usually spend months searching) and decided to start with the Tacoma. I looked very briefly at the Frontier but the backup camera in the rearview mirror sold me on the Tacoma. After reading some things on Tacoma World I decided to pull the trigger on a TRD Sport and am enjoying it. Only had it a couple weeks but so far:
    Likes:
    Backup camera in rearview mirror
    Size - not too big but big enough
    Bluetooth radio for handsfree talking
    Stereo (stock in the Colorado sucked)
    Outlet in bed
    Storage in bed

    Dislikes:
    No cargo light
    No auto headlights
    Useless location of the 12V adapters (can't get to them with a cup in the passenger cup holder)
    XM antenna location (can't haul long items sitting on roof & tailgate)

    Added:
    Tool box in bed (not too sure about it being screwed into the composite bed. Will it stay put and not strip out the screws?)

    To be added:
    Roof rack (suggestions?)
    Back seat covers

    Still getting used to it and know I will love it and will be spending lots more time here researching for added toys.

    Welcome from OR. I attached my toolbox and headach rack to 1/4" aluminum plates that I slid into the bed rails. It has held tight for me. (Got pictures in my build thread, link located above my signature). Screwin into the bed should be fine too.
