    Hey y'all. I decided on a reintroduction as a new Tacoma owner.

    Got a great buy from a dealership about 2 hours north. '08 V6 PreRunner AccessCab 4x2 AT - SR5, TowPkg, and Alloy wheels.

    In case this interests anyone, the 126 miles I put on the trip back I used a little less than 1/4 of the tank. That'd put it right around 25 MPG.

    I'm impressed.

    Congratulations! That mileage is impressive. Hope mine does as well on longer trips. Currently while just running errands around town, I'm getting 19 m.p.g. Enjoy your new truck! :)
