    Hey Everyone.

    My name is Rex. I just bought a 06 Tacoma to replace my 92 HiLux. I bought the 92 brand new in Missoula, Mt and then 4 wheeled south to my home town of Tucson,Az. It's been an excellent truck the whole time and has gotten me in and out of some incredible places. I hate to let it go. But, I'm old now and I live on the east coast and needed something with A/C and that's why I got the Tacoma. It's like brand new but needs some add ons like better tires, a brush guard/deer killer and maybe a lift.

    Nice truck! I lived in Tucson for a while, grew up in the Phoenix area and now unfortunately reside on the East Coast as well.

    Here's a picture of the 92 from the back showing the tailgate I built for it.

    Right on! I'm living in Montana now, lived/worked in Tucson for about 8 years, and basically grew up in Mesa, AZ! Never done the East Coast thing though. LOL

    Nice truck. :) Welcome to TW!
