    Well recently unfortunate luck had me looking for a replacement truck. I was driving a Ram 2500 when another driver decided to pull into traffic from an alleyway and take my truck head on. Fortunately no one was injured, besides both our vehicles, and insurance wasn't too much of a hassle.

    I knew I wanted another truck, but wanted to keep most of the insurance money (trying to buy a house in CA). New 1500s got into the 40k very quickly and non of the Ford, Chevy/GM, Ram seemed worth it. The new Tacomas caught my eye and had everything I was looking for right now. I was able to grab a 4x4 Double Cab Long Bed TRD Offroad.

    Its a completely different truck than I am used to but its been tons of fun so far.
