    I started with a '94 Ranger to an '01 Mustang. Then after the kid was born I got an '05 Mazda 6. Finally got the '11 Taco of my dreams lol. The longest I've ever kept a vehicle is 6 years. I'm hoping to go for at least 10 with this one.

    2001 Chevy Blazer 2 door - all stock. Only had it for about 8 months and hated it because it didn't perform as an "SUV" like I hoped.

    Finished fixing my credit and BAM, new Taco in the driveway in '06.

    Sometimes I feel like it's a downgrade but I wanted the extra space and went from an 03 A/C 5 spd TRD Offroad with 3" lift and toyo A/T tires to a 09 D/C S/B 6 spd Sport that came with 17" wheels and 33" KM2's put on by the dealer.

    It's not a downgrade, I was being too harsh.

    Your new truck setup sounds great. The 33" KM2s are a sweat tire, oh yeah!

    Cheers!

    I'm not gonna lie I love my new truck but I'm not a fan of all the electronics and I miss the 4wd shifter it made life easier. In the end I know I could have made a monster 4x4 with the 03. Oh well I guess it's time to throw some money into the 09 and take her exploring when I get back stateside.

    Can't call it an upgrade or downgrade really, I had a 67 Bronco, Auto, 6in lift. 35in BFG ATs, Soft top, and balanced blueprinted 351W. Built it from the frame up. Can't post pics I still miss it too much to see them.
