    Bought my truck wrecked at auction. I've got about 8.5k in it now that it's completed. That's just a little more than half what it would have cost me to buy one otherwise. This is the only way it became do-able. No loan. I'm working the last of the bugs out of it now. I didn't realize Toyota's have a lean to the left. It's driving me nuts. My new firestone airbags arrived last week only with the wrong air valve fittings so I'm still waiting to install.

    I can't wait to have this thing paid off and use that "extra" money to mod it...if I can hold off until then.

    I'm surprised so many don't have their trucks paid off. The only reason I don't own a Tacoma is because I cannot afford the full sticker value at this time. I will purchase one when I can buy it out right.

    I've got about 4500 left. By New Years is my goal. Then that freed up money applied to principal on wife's Subaru. That has 7000 which should go fast too. Can't wait until both are ours.
