    Bought a 2014 Tacoma SR. White with black wheels and accents. So far loving it. It's my first Toyota. Prior to this I was riding a 2007 Electraglide as my transportation. It got up to 113K before it lost an argument with a bear. He and I both walked away and Allstate gave me a fat check so the Taco came to be mine. I'm 60, live in Mt Dora Florida and work in Longwood as a Biomedical Equipment Tech at a Dyalysis Center.

    I've learned a lot from this site and know what I intend to do with my truck. I have done some of the upgrades with more to come.

    Bears are actually hit more often than deer in this area. They are becoming a real nuisance. I've had them living in the small stretch of woods behind the house. This one was on a road in one of the ritziest neighborhoods around Orlando. My wife says I need a "bear catcher" on the front of the truck.
    Bout a month ago a lady walking her dog was mauled by a bear in the same area.
