    Honestly when I went and purchased my first Tacoma in 2002 I was dead set on an access cab. I thought the double cabs were ugly. The dealer I went to had a left over 02 dbl cab limited with sun roof and everything that they sold me for less the 23k at the time. I couldn't pass it up. After having the double cab I would never want anything else. It was just too damn convient with camping and such. Since then I'll only buy double cabs. Plus I think the 2nd gen dcabs look sweet :)

    Access cab looks the best imo. DC with short bed looks like whiplash took off a chunk off the back.
