    Hi all. I'm getting close to retirement and wanted a vehicle that would last me a while. I have always heard good things about the Tacoma, so when I ran across this I had to have it. I just bought this 2017 with 19,000 miles on it last week. I really am impressed with it. I don't know why I didn't get one sooner. I picked up some black nerf bars that I'll be installing this weekend. 20190308_065957.jpg

    Welcome to TW. Yeah I'm on my first Toyota too and a Tacoma at that. Wish I would have bought one few years back instead of vehicles with horrible depreciation.

    Thanks. I'm basically a machinist/CNC Programmer/non-degreed design engineer. For the past 25 years I've worked at a shop that builds custom competition carburetors.
