    alright guys i haven't been on tw in a week because my truck is gone Friday october 24 2008. it was hit in the front parked in front of my house. the guy that hit me was drunk and was driving a ford f-250. my truck was parked in front of my neighbors tacoma. the impact of the hit forced my truck to moved back which made it hit my nieghbors tacoma. all his had was a bent bumper. mine is totaled. the f-250 totaled. thats the last time i park any of my truck outside. I HATE DRUNK DRIVERS:mad::mad::mad::mad:. now i dont know if i should get and 09 tacoma or an 09 tundra.

    Taco! Tundra is too big and the front end doesn't look nearly as good as the Taco.

    Also, what you save on gas and car notes of the Tundra, you can spend modding the Taco! :)

    Taco all the way. Unless your looking at a reg cab Tundra with a 5.7, that would be a MONSTER.

    Got pics of the truck? I'm curious to see how it held up to a F250.

    If drunk drivers only killed/injured themselves I really wouldn't be too upset. But they always destroy other people's property and injure and kill INNOCENT people and USUALLY just walk away. Hope you get a nice, big fat check to go plunk down on another TACOMA.

    SORRY to hear about your Tacoma. Go for a new TACOMA :D The new Tundra's are freakin' UGLY.
