Say hello to my new truck!
Edited on Mon Mar-15-04 01:54 PM by ZenLefty


Yea, many months ago I asked the advice of DUers as to what kind of truck to buy. Ironically, after ignoring all their opinions and doing my own research, I ended up buying a Toyota Tacoma just like a lot of DUers advised me to anyway. :D So now I own 2700 pounds of steel powered by a 3.4L V6 engine with 190 freeper crushing horses under the hood. And it's painted fire engine red to boot. Cool, eh?

3. Congratulations, I just got a new Toyota Tacoma too.
Two weeks ago,mine is Lunar Mist, and 4 cy. My 84 Toyota PU had 166,000 trouble free miles on it. I gave it to my son. Should be good for another 100,000.

7. Ahh lovely Toyota!
It should last you forever without any problems. I deperately wanted one of these or a Tundra, I love Toyota. Unfortunately they do not make a big enough rig for what I needed. I do love my Dodge Ram but I lust for Toyota. Pretty, good for you!

11. 1.6 litre V6?
Probably closer to 3.6 litres, as my '93 Toyota PU (151,000 miles) has the 22R; 2.2 litre 4 banger. Take care of your 'yot, and it will run forever!!
