The STI Replacement

Well I traded in the STI for a Tacoma. My wife wanted the Tacoma instead of the STI to begin with but I kinda talked her into getting the STI cause thats what I wanted. I realized that we need a truck (I always use my dad's truck) so I figure I might as well kill two birds with one stone. Picked it up last week Wednesday. Well of course those of you who know me, I can't leave well enough alone. Here's our new Tacoma!!! Let me know what you think....

right on Dave, now i know how your wify's car looks like...brand new and already got a raise and rims/tires, right on man!!!

i think if i was to get a truck, i would get a SVT lightening(1st choice), the Tundra, maybe the Chevy SS truck..maybe even those older F150's...

Sweet! I may be considering one in the future for Kauai. I hear there are some cool places only accessible to lifted trucks...........or I may just lift the Forester.

Thanks guys! I really didn't want to get rid of the STI but like I said I did buy it for my wife and her decision was law in my book. But after I did the lift I am extremely happy with the truck and may not even give my wife a chance to drive it! Hehehe! Hey pablo her, if you guys want you can use it to update the fabtech website........ LOL!
