    That did run across my mind at a point. I think everyone would
    agree with me when I say. I like the Tacoma a whole lot better
    than the tundra any day. But thanks it is a sweet car for what it is.

    :thumbsup: we all need to sacrifice somethings eventually. Hey but
    at least this way I can just get myself a first gen and go balls to the
    wall with it, not having to worry about destroying the "family car"

    thanks a lot buddy; glad to see you finally got your truck back from
    the body shop. It looks like they did a hell of a job. your truck is looking
    great, you lucked out that they got you the allpro leafs for the rear.

    Yes agree the 2014 corolla have more room on the back seat than our double cab but don't have the bed space and it will be really hard to fit the Enkei 20" LoL , my sister just bought this one today

    He already lost all his freon on the meet at the hump on homestead


    thats good to know because I have to replace my AC compressor that just when out last week but first I have to find a good oem used for cheap or come out with $700 to buy a new denso one at the auto parts because the stealer ( dealer ) want like $1000 for a new oem

    nice corolla, they are definitely comfortable compared to the back seats
    of a Tacoma.

    Your a/c went out at the hump also??

    The day after the hump not sure if was the mud or the water ( pressure washer) from the car wash after the meet or it went out just because , I drove like 3hrs after the car wash with the AC on all the way to Naples and the next morning was working fine but on Monday afternoon the AC light was flashing and I put it off and on couple times and it make a weird noise then I find out that the compressor is stock and the belt is spinning on the clutch i check it and is all clean no mud or dirt on it

    that is kind of weird. Maybe it froze up from the heat of the motor
    then the cold of the pressure water hitting it. But that is a little far
    fetched.

    could have just been its time to go...

    She was getting this one for a good deal not sunroof , no tints but at the end when she was going to sign all the paper work they said that this one was sold on march to a lady that was driving another corolla s the wrong one for some reason , so they Offer my sister to pick another one from the lot and the blue one was inside the showroom in front of her so she pick that and they match the price they didn't charge the $850 for the sunroof or $ for the tints
