    thumbnail_20220130_130930.jpg thumbnail_20220130_131015.jpg After wanting a Tacoma for almost a decade, I finally got one. Early in January I took my 2015 Rav4 with over 102k in miles for an oil change and walked out with a brand new 2022 Tacoma SR with the X-Series package. They offered $14,000 it. I'm not sure how much of a deal the package is really worth but it was convenient to get the vehicle with tires, step rails, etc already on it.
    Already have 2,500 miles on it (trip to South Florida) and loving it.
    Anyway, glad to be here.

    Thank you. Some of the other colors are pretty nice but sadly the choices were limited. That said, I do like the silver. What's really nice is that the inside has very little chrome. Mainly the radio knobs and the Toyota emblem on the steering wheel. Got the emblem covered with a black overlay.

    Silver is king. Always looks clean even when filthy.

    I have 3 rounds of upgrades planned.
    1. Change the grill to the TRD Pro Grill with silver lettering and the smoked amber raptor lights. Add fog lights. I would have kept the original grill but I don't like the chrome Toyota symbol. Would have liked a blackened one but not made anymore.
    2. The Body Armor Hiline Front Winch Bumper with LED light bar
    3. The Body Armor Pro Series Rear Bumper.

    if anyone has any reviews or comments on these items please let me know.

    I noticed. Years ago I had a 93 Dodge Dakota in black. Looked great clean...but everything showed up on it. Had that truck for 23 years though...

    Good for you! I’m glad you were able to find a Tacoma, in this market. These are certainly trying times. The supply is limited and the demand is high.

    That silver color looks very nice. I like it.

    They said my truck in came the night before around closing time. I basically snagged it before lunch time. They might have had 1 or 2 others but they were more on the top end of the price range.
