    STARTING OVER!!! (new to me truck)
    I am back, BABY! not that you'd have any reason to know me. I'm just BACK!

    Got my first Taco new 2010 PreRunner SR5. Swore I'd drive it till it disintegrated. But COVID hit an we needed to move cross-country as a family and the tow capacity was limited. What to do? NEW TACOMA!!!!!

    Made it across country, was happy. I missed the 2010, my first love, but it was a good truck, my 2020 4x4.

    But then, the covid pregnancy turned out to be covid TWINS. The ladies gave us kids 3 & 4, and the new Taco had to go for a hybrid Sienna. Doom. Gloom. Dark days.

    The other vehicle blew up on me and I'm buying my neighbor's 2012 TRD Sport with 138k miles. I haven't been happier. Already have the seat covers, and joying auto head unit en route.
    Tailgate lock, roof rack, and hidden reed switch unlock to be added after the above additions. I'm investigating a DIY tambour slat tonneau cover because I need somebody to stop me.

    I was going to ask if the Sienna and 3G Taco drove much differently since they share the same motor.

    But then I saw the Sienna is a hybrid so I guess I'll have to keep my 3G Taco dig to myself. Welcome back to the 2nd gen forum
