What did you drive before 2nd gen tacoma?

2010 VW Golf 2.5. Traded it in for my 2011 Tacoma DCLB TRD Sport.

For the past 10 years I have owned 4 cars.
A 1986 Chevrolet Caprice Classic with power every thing. Added a L69 10.5:1 305 V8, 700R4. This was the first car I have driven over 100 MPH with. Had to scrap it and put the L69 in another truck. This was my first car, drove it HS like a boss.

My second car was a 2005 GMC Sierra W/T. Bought it during the Employee Discount in the Summer of 2005 with only 6 miles on it. Did all the work myself on it. Plane Jane, 60K worry free miles until I lost it in a rear end collision.


My third car is a 2007 Chevrolet HHR 1LT. I loved that car until it had some serious problems before it reached 80K miles. The power steering motor died, the radiator got a nice leak from a road hazard and got into some accidents. All got fixed, but it was getting very expensive to own.

Last week I traded it in for a 2007 Taco DCLB PR TRD. It has everything I wanted in a half ton pick up, that I could not find in a Chevy or GMC. I really like the Long Box, I can put so much stuff in it. Now, I must look at it in the driveway.

 

1997 Toyota Tacoma

 

1998 Plymouth Neon. I know, I know, just a slight upgrade.

 

Prior to my 2012 Tacoma TRD OR AC 4x4 I drove a 2007 SR5 4Runner 4x4...which I also still own.

 

10 years 210,xxx miles. Still kicking.

 

5 weeks ago before I bought my new Tacoma, I was driving a 2008 mazda 3 GT. Also had a 98 ranger. Before those, my first car was a 98 civic hatchback.

Loving the Tacoma!



I'll add the toys too I guess:
2004 suzuki intruder 1500
2002 Honda RC51
2002 Honda Cbr600
1997 Honda Cbr600

All are gone, maybe another one soon or a 4 wheeler...?

 

'51 Willys pickup
'69 Chevy pickup
'72 Ford pickup
'80 Toyota pickup
'87 Toyota pickup
'03 Toyota pickup
'06 Toyota pickup

Never have owned a car, barely have driven one.

 

Before the 2012 Tacoma TRD OR DCSB, I had an '08 Honda Accord(because of gas) in 4 years I never got used to how low that car was because I grew up in trucks all my life. Before the Honda I had a '97 Sierra.
Summary:
'08 Accord
'97 Sierra

 

79 CJ5 and an 05 Hayabusa.....sold both of them

 

This is what I drove before the 2008 Taco. I also had the 98 Taco SR-5, also white, for about seven years.

 

2008 Sequoia Ltd - traded in

I also agree with other responses, it's difficult going back to a sedan or coupe after driving a bigger SUV. Even when we traded in, I only test drove the Tacoma.

 

I was driving a 99 Frontier until this happened. Some bitch ran a red light while texting. On a positive note, I am now driving a 2012 Doublecab.

 

I was a huge Mopar fan. I got tired of putting transmissions in my trucks so I went Toyota. Now I'm on my second Tacoma, both 2nd gen.

 

06 4Runner Limited, still have it and will never get rid of it, only 60K miles on it

 

07 Accord EXL V6.....and I dont miss it. I love my Taco

 

Drove a 1996 Chev Malibu 2 door, major upgrade to my 06 double cab.

 

Honda S2000

 

holy moly
i had a 1995 white astrovan
"molestrovan"
no windows and the cage behind the seats
with the little door and airholes
it was very creepy, but good work p.o.s.
lotta miles
ran the tank empty once
all the gunk shot into the lines
turned into a nightmare
got towed for parking tickets and let them keep it
