    I wasn't even in the market for a truck when it happened, as we were looking at trading my wife's car in on a new 4runner. While she was test driving and looking at the various ones, I noticed a super clean low mileage Tacoma on the lot, so I walked over to check it out. Now mind you, we drove up in my 2015 Ram 2500 diesel, which I have been underwhelmed with and have no real need for.

    So after talking with the salesperson about numbers on my truck and the Tacoma, decided to pull the trigger and make it happen. We also ended up working a deal on the 4runner the same day.

    The trades

    The new rides

    Few more of the Tacoma, cleanest used 4wd I have seen around here

    Does that just pop off?!? Will definitely get that done if that's the case.

    I have already removed the old man chrome door handle covers that were on it, and peeled the TRD sport stickers off of the side. I also added the vent visors..
