'06 4X4 Base Regular Cab... 2.7L / 5MT, bench seat, crank windows, manual door locks, black bumpers & trim... it was awesome. Most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. Put 80k on it and sold it for more than I bought it for. Still miss it sometimes but it had to go when I found out I was going to have a kid. Bilstein / Eibach / Deaver suspension, LR UCAs, all-custom Avid Off Road bumpers, sliders, skids, bed rack, etc. eBay lights, MOLLE seat covers, custom gun rack, custom HU/NAV/gauge cluster/LEDs... it was a true budget build done right.
My first was a 2003 single cab Prerunner because it was all I could afford on a PFC with a family's pay. I grew up with them though. My grandpa had an 1980 something Toyota pickup which then he sold for a 1st gen Tacoma which then he sold for a 2nd gen which he still has. My other grandpa took us camping all the time in his Toyota Dolphin.
I had a 91 4Runner v6 4x4 back in high school. Great truck for Baja and going snowboarding. I sold it after about two years and then another 2 years later it threw a rod on the new owner. I think it was parted after that.
I waited a long time to get back in a Toyota. I regretted the day I sold my 89 Toyota Deluxe. I love driving my 17 Taco!! I plan to keep it for a long time!!
