    Hello... just following directions I guess. Tried finding a photo of my 2002 Tacoma but it's like that weird little kid that shows up in every photo in the yearbook but you never really see all of him. Got the photo of a leaking CV Axle. One of the bent bumper. Scuffed up license plate. But nothing of the entire truck. I can take a proper picture later I suppose.

    I got it from my father shortly after he passed away. It's got somewhere in the ballpark of 125k miles. I hid it in my back yard for about a year because I couldn't afford insurance or gas on it. Then hardly ever drove it because it's apparently against the law to let people ride in the bed of the truck and it's too hard to fit a family of five in the cab.

    It's got quite a few scuffs from parking down town (jerks). Mangled a beauty ring for... reasons. Lost a mudflap while working in the woods. My dads dog chewed the shifter. The airbag warning light won't turn off. The front end vibrates like crazy, probably due to that needle bearing on the driver side and the leaking seal. Had the cat stolen once then it took three attempts to get the repairs done correctly thanks to all the crazy new smog emission laws. One of the engine belts self destructed.

    It's old. It's stock. It's scrappy. It's mine. And I still get thumbs up from newer Tacoma owners when I drive down the road. Most importantly, my youngest daughter absolutely loves the truck and the mountain trips we take.

    And that's my introduction I guess. :notsure:
