    thanks buddy. and its kinda a funny story. i always loved these trucks. i mean its hard to deny the beauty of them. But about a week ago we had a horrible storm and i was coming home from work and every where was flooded. so i kinda came to a breaking point when i couldnt even get home from work. So i decided it was about time to get a tacoma.
