    OP, sorry about your loss and it must be one of the worst times in your life.:( Hold on to that truck dearly. Mine has some sentimental value cause I put so much work and money into it. Plus its the first vehicle that I have bought by "myself." I am going to keep it until it rots away!!:eek:

    Moms are cool like that. I lossed mine over a year ago and still think about her every day. Mine was also in bad health. But they suffer no more and are in a great place. They are with us probably more than we know. Sounds like a great lady. Enjoy your connection with her, your Tacoma.

    OP, sorry for your loss. Both of my parents are alive and I am not going to even pretend that I know what you are going through. I'm sure your mom is in a better place now, and that should be some what of a comfort for you I hope.
    My truck was a present from my wife and I will never get rid of it, or my wife :) love them both.
