After a year of posting that I’m going to buy a truck, I bought a truck.

It’s a 2014 Tacoma Sr5 V6 4x4, CPO and yes it’s actually mine.

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

So far I love it. Everything I was expecting and more, the gas mileage is shit, but the 4.0 packs a punch.

It feels like the end of an era, really. jkm truck shopping posts was like the ‘death and taxes’ of Oppo. You should probably keep shopping even though you bought one.
