    Hello everyone, I just traded in my 07 Volkswagen GTI in for a 09 Access cab Tacoma SR5. The GTI was such a nice car, so much fun to drive and great on gas. Can't say enough good things about this car, unfortunatley I found myself constantly needing a truck for work and home progects and the GTI was'nt prctical anymore.

    So this brings me here, I got a great 09, V6 Access cab tacoma, brand new. It was really the only midsize truck I considered due to reliabilty and re-sale. So far I love the truck, a few minor issuea such as passenger seatbelt beep(now fixed) and I can't seem to get the steering wheel in the right spot, other than those minor gripes I am stoked and love the truck. I hope it gets decent fuel milage, kinda a concern of mine.

    Anyhow, great site and I look forward to posting and contributing:)
