Hopeful Return!
After a foolish 2 year endeavor with an '06 Tacoma, I am looking at trading it in for an '03 F-150 FX4 with 101,000 miles. At only $8995, even with the negative equity I owe on the Tacoma, I should still end up paying less monthly with an earlier loan payoff date. I've regretted trading in my '99 F-150 almost immediately after doing so. Wish me luck guys, I hope to be posting among you again once more!

There isn't anything specific that makes me dislike the Tacoma really. I think it is mainly that I got so used to a full size 4X4 truck that downsizing to a PreRunner really made a difference. I was a little disappointed with initial quality of the Tacoma. I've had 3 TSB's done under warranty including replacing the clutch pedal, front bumper mounts, and rear leaf springs. I've also had to re solder a resistor inside the overhead temp/direction display. Also, my wife liked the more "boat-ish" ride of the F-150 and she refuses to learn how to drive a manual (Tacoma is a 6-speed).
