    So I'm very torn.

    Between upgrading to a 16 or getting a motorcycle.

    I really want the moon roof, heated seats, and upgraded interior, exterior, etc...

    But for almost the same cost to upgrade, I can get a bike...

    For some back story, I've had a bunch of bikes thru the years. Sold my last and was about to buy something different then found out my wife was pregnant. My daughters 2 1/2 now and I'm feeling comfortable enough to entertain the idea of getting another bike

    Well this certainly all depends on what type of bike. And what the misses says.

    No contest, buy a bike and/or save some money for your daughter's education. "Upgrading" from a 2015 to a 2016 is a stupid money move. Yeah, I like those options on my 2016 Limited. But if I hadn't given my daughter my 2001 SR5 I'd probably still be driving it. But other toys make more sense, like the ski boat, the Harley, the whitewater kayaks, the cameras, etc.

    Your TRD Sport doesn't come with heated seats?

    And I agree, I wouldn't buy a new taco when I already have a new taco. I know how you feel though, I'd love dual zone AC, heated mirrors and the new smooth shifting 6mt. I just can't justify the cost though. Buy a bike...or some mods for the 2015.

    I've had a few tacos now and before I got this 15 I told my wife I was settling because I really wanted a blue trd off road dclb and they dont make one and watch, now they are gonna come out with one... And boom... They did


    I totalled my first one and I traded in my second one (acess cab to double cab for car seat). I want to keep one long term so that's kinda why I want to bite the bullet and get everything I really want

    Ah fuck it, if it's not going to be too much financially, just go for it.

    Hey guys, so I'm debating buying either spicy mayo, or regular mayo. My wife enjoys the spicy mayo, as do I, but my inlaws are coming into town next year, and I'm not sure of their preference. I think I can swing buying both, however my wife has stated that she doesn't appreciate coming home after work, and having an excess of condiments in our fridge, as this was always an issue she had during her childhood. Also, the nearest place to buy the spicy mayo is right next to a Toyota dealership where they have some of the new Tacomas. Maybe I should buy one of those, the spicy mayo, or the regular mayo. Can somebody help me decide? Also, I put this in the 3rd gen section because that makes sense to me.
