    It's nice to have a truck again. I have been doing nothing but home renovations for that past three years and the old Grand Cherokee and Honda Accord have been loaded up in several odd configurations. When that didn't work I ended up having to borrow someone's truck, like some big loser.

    Owning a Tacoma can be expensive because they are easily modded.

    Owning any truck can be expensive because they can greatly assist in completing projects.

    Nice work!
