Well, I finally managed to put my life well-enough together to buy a new truck. I'm thrilled! I bought a red access-cab 2007 4WD v6 auto today and couldn't be happier.

Here's to good trails ahead for all of us!

I wouldn't go leavin' you guys without pics now that I have a dig. camera (21st century for the win!).

I was sold on the 4cyl 5sp 4wd regular cab. Obviously I fell in love with the V6's power.

You have to go to power this, that etc with the towing package. Our boat's small enough I didn't feel it was worth the $3000 upgrade. I might have a supplemental engine oil and trans cooler installed later. Depends - I'll know the first time I go towing...

We have -no- hills and I'll be using low on the ramp - I always do for control and safety. Nothing like a slick ramp to ruin your day.

See you... out there.

Neato. I almost bought a red one. My old '89 mini was red and I always liked that Toyota red.

Congrats on the new rig, nice to have another 05+ around!

Use up the 3/36 before any serious mods, the dealers are getting really hinckey about warranty work these days...
