    A few weeks ago we were a happy family with Prius, Suburban (2500 4x4) and motorcycle (and 95k was the lowest mileage of the three). Today was my daughter's 15.5 birthday, so Monday we thought about getting a third car. Yesterday we bought a '13 Tacoma SR5 DC 4x4.

    I never realized just what I was getting into buying a 2 yr old truck for a nearly new price...and now I see all of the options. This forum is going to get me in deep trouble with the wife!

    Good looking truck Mike. You can disregard some of my info in the SD thread since you actually have a shell instead of an open bed. Oh yeah you can delete the Prerunner part in your control panel. Prerunner stands for 2wd.
