    It's 2wd. KBB says it's worth 16000-16500 for very good to excellent.

    While I appreciate the offer, I can't. going from a lifted, armored, 4x4, v6 to the i4 2wd is too much of a hit for me. :/

    Leaving the 22 inch wheels i had for so long. I'd be lying if i said i didn't like having them on at first, but realized I would get no real truck respect by having them on. But super glad i got these OEM Baja wheels to replace them.

    You perform a great service to your community, sir. There are bunches of kids in my neighborhood that keep us from wanting some of our own. Don't get me wrong everyone loves their kids, but it is a big lifestyle change.

    My biggest regret was not getting a 4x4 the first time. Didn't want to wait on one to come into the dealership so I took the OR with the locker they had in stock. This was back in 2005 when the 2nd gen just came out. They weren't budging on the price so, I left the dealership thinking they would stop me before I got out the door - they didn't. Just so happened a hail storm came through. I went back to the dealership and got $1K off the price. I drove that truck for 9 years, hail dents and all. No one even noticed the dents for all those years until I would point them out to them.

    Oh, yeah, regrets...4x4. So, after 9 years, I got a 2015, 4x4 and long bed so I could fit my bicycles in there with the handle bars straight and front wheel on, well my road bikes anyway.

    1. buying a truck with ball point pen springs in the rear. seriously, you put groceries in the bed and it does a wheelie. They need a tacoma HD version, it would sell.
    2. Not buying a hard tri fold tonneau. I fear the service life of the flexible cover

    Agreed. 17 year old kid . Dude doesnt know his ass from his elbow yet, either did I at that age.

    Anyone that gives a definite NO/YES at such a young age tends to find life doesnt work that way.
