    I'm Chris, live near Nashville, TN flown helicopters for 10+ years. Never had a Tacoma before but have always digged them. Hoping to buy a 16 Off Road in Silver whenever it gets to the dealer. Looking forward to learning more about these trucks and have enjoyed to information I've found already.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Awesome. I like the idea of buying the lonely one sitting on the lot (the Rat Bastard so to speak) Good luck!

    So this may take longer than expected or I might be changing colors. Dealer called me today to tell me the color I want they can't find, only the color they've been looking for is not the color I asked for. Now it might be an inferno or a few weeks....decisions
