LOL !!!!! I did, then I traded it in. The Toyota dealer paid off my Ford loan in full, got a great deal on this Tacoma. There was 2 alike, but the one I purchased had alot of added dealer installed stuff. I think someone wanted it, then went back on the deal. It was almost $34,000 sticker, got them down to $29,500 with the exteneded warrenty included. I just got back from there, my Reg., and Tags came in.

Thanks Drag [up]

Took the picture at Garret Mtn. park
i was thinking about getting one at one point. it'll be better on gas then a f150 or k1500.

Let me tell you, like night and day !!!!! That Ford F-150 got 14mpg Hwy. I must say it drove like a dream, but it ate more then a FAT LADY. The Toyota is getting 17 plus mpg, and drives just as well. Thats the 2nd Toyota Tacoma I got from this dealer, both times treated me well, the Ford dealer was also great, but then agian an officer I work with also works there got me a great deal.
I used to own a 2002 double cab Tacoma. I loved that truck. The new ones are very cool looking. Nice truck BHC[up]
yeah i drive 140 miles a day so i need something with some better gas mileage.

I use to drive 140 miles round trip also for 3 years when I 1st became an officer. That dealer had a few Tacomas in stock this morning, I also saw that they where unloading a few more off the car carrier.
Nice truck, congrats on getting it.

Good luck with the new truck. A friend of mine has the tundra and he loves it.[up]
a friend of mine got the 2500 with the hemi. he's not that happy with it.
For the money you paid you could have almost got a 3/4 ton Dodge with a Cummins! This is the truck I drive, and I get low 20's for mileage, about 50/50 highway/country driving. I am like you and put a lot of miles on my truck (100 miles/day commute) and I was thinking of longevity when I got the diesel. When your truck is 5 years old, it will not be worth much with over 150K miles on it, but a diesel is just getting broken in.
