    So about a month ago I went back home for Christmas and decided it was time for a new vehicle since I'd be moving across the country pretty soon and my 1994 b18 swapped Del Sol wasn't going to be a very good option for transporting all my stuff. I had decided on getting a Jeep Patriot and on the way to the Jeep dealership I randomly stopped at the Toyota dealership just to take a look at the Tacomas since I had always wanted one. With the Jeep Patriot as a fall back option in my head I offered the dealer 24k for a Tacoma sticker'd at 31k. Apparently Toyotas don't have a whole lot of mark up... but somehow I managed to get it for 27k after taxes and everything. For my first time ever buying a car from a dealership I'd say I did a pretty good job.

    Anyways, here she is :)

    next I decided to make a license plate mount instead of make holes in my bumper

    it wasn't really sitting straight at first so I had to adjust it

    In hindsight I should have probably turned my wheels the other way for this picture

    so in the future probably looking to add some foglights, +3 inch lift and some 33" MTs
