Sorry to hear that unavailable but you have to do what’s best for you and the Mrs.!!��

Sad indeed! I built an add on garage on my land to avoid this exact scenario. Best of luck!

Life happens. I know it wasn’t easy. Congrats on the marriage and new Truck!

What do you need a truck for? Almost every half ton I see driving around here never has anything in the bed.

So you're saying you don't need a truck and just wanted a truck? Makes zero sense to me then b/c trucks suck gas and are not fun to drive or park.

The only part I don't really get is also trading in a new Tacoma TRD Pro for the Silverado Z71. Was the Toyota too weak to keep, or the bed small, or...?

Post pics when you add the lift kit, wheels and tires!

Best advice yet, I agree 100 percent!

Actually, I wanted the 6.2L like in the ZL1(not supercharged, that can come later) and a truck. I have to have a truck. So now I have both, traded in both and completely out of debt. The ZL1 was paid off. Taco, not so much. They gave me a smoking deal. Getting a 4 inch lift from BDS and 33in KM3's
