First time Taco owner in PA

Just this past Tuesday, I traded in my trusty (but starting to get a little too creaky) 2003 Ford Focus ZX5 for a brand new Tacoma SR5 (double cab, 4x4 with towing package). Kind of a drastic change, but one of the reasons is that I plan on buying a camping trailer in the next few years and needed something that would be able to pull it.

I'm a Ford guy from a Ford family (this is the first non-FoMoCo product I've owned), but couldn't wait for them to bring back the Ranger. My brother (an auto tech that's owned a few trucks) suggested the Tacoma, so I drove one and also a similarly-equipped Colorado. Both would suit my needs, but the Chevy handled like a bar of soap in a bathtub. It reminded me a lot of my late father's '85 Ford Crown Vic in that respect. The Tacoma is definitely better at going where you point it without sloshing the occupants around.

Anyway, I'm hoping to hold onto this as long as I did the Focus and looking forward to learning from the collective wisdom here.

 

Welcome from Nevada!

 

Congrats on your Tacoma and welcome!
