    I've been driving Fords for many years (1995 Ranger, 1995 Explorer, 2000 Ranger). But my 2000 Ranger was on its last legs, so I just traded it in (didn't get much) and got a black 2013 Toyota Tacoma with 32,000 miles. I'm still in the honeymoon phase, but I'm loving it after one day.

    My mechanic tells me that it was a great choice, and that I'll be way over 100,000 miles before I'll need any major work on it. I'm looking forward to that.

    My first brand new car was a Camry back in the 80s, and my wife drives a 2012 RAV4, so we're not new to Toyota. But this is indeed my first Toyota truck.
