I finally pulled the trigger on a new (to me) truck. I found a 2016 Toyota Tacoma Limited. I had it shipped from Illinois. Even with shipping, it was still cheaper than buying here in Seattle. I found it for cheaper than every other Limited currently online and since I can register it in Oregon for a few months at my parents, I'll save about $3,500 in taxes.
Doing a search online there are 2000, 2016 Tacomas for sale. Of which only 157 are blue. Of that, only 18 are a "Limited". So I was pretty happy in getting the best price on a vehicle that is only 1% of the total market available. It's an automatic (I don't know why anybody would want a manual if they aren't doing rock climbing competitions) and has leather interior, sunroof (ultra rare in trucks and super awesome), 18" Toyota wheels, and a bunch of other bells and whistles. I know some people will bash because it's a "short bed". Well, I live in the city and don't need an 8 foot bed. I literally live .2 miles from Home Depot and go there about twice a week. I don't need to haul lumber since my house is pretty new.
Anyway, assuming this is going to be a 5 year keeper, I'll use this a build thread and update accordingly.

Oh yeah, TTIWWOP
Off the shipping truck at 6am. It was cold as hell. Guess which one didn't start. lol (hint: it was the Ford)
Still frozen in front of the house:
Before bath:
After bath:
Code white in Seattle!
