    ED1C02E2-3412-44A1-BDB8-6E42E59962EE.jpg is it just mine or does anyone else’s wife hate their Tacoma? Mine doesn’t want to ride in it ever again. Says it’s to small, rides to rough, is ugly and it’s a POS. I try to explain to her how rare they are but she just doesn’t understand!!

    Nope I lucked out and my wife loves my truck. Even goes to meet ups with me and loves off-roading. Isn’t into the “overland” concept but hey I’m not complaining. She steals my Yota sometimes tho....

    Rare as in ones that are in good shape. Plenty of them for sale, but not always worth buying

    i bet i did not count much more than 10 1st gens on the highways from here to St Louis to Lake Superior and back this summer
    that is rare to see so few on the roads in probably 5000 miles all together, and all but 2 i think were the 01-04 models
