    I've never left my Taco since I bought it. I'm posting from within it right now. lol jk.

    I think it was about 2 days- going my longest without driving it. It was just a slow weekend of sitting 'round the house.

    I'm trying to make more and more weekends like that ever since I took the truck out to Anderson Truck Trail in Alpine, CA. Got some real good scratches on the sides and really need to stop hurting my truck in such ways.

    Welcome to the forums! I rescued a pair of mountain bikers back in March on Anderson Truck Trail. One guy broke his collar bone--a huge fall from what he said, the other guy was fine, he was a Medical Doctor, but could do nothing for his friend except build a sling for his arm. With their bikes in the bed of my truck, and them in the cab, I wheeled them out to safety. I parted with them when we hooked up with a third friend of theirs with his truck and bike racks.
