Took the plunge and bought the Tacoma

I did it.
I think?
If everything on the sticker is what I wanted.
'04 SR5 DC 4WD Lunar Mist TRD Loaded
Tough to find a Lunar Mist with Chrome package in my area.
Went to 5 dealers.
I'm in the NYC metro area and out of all those dealers they had 4 DC's in stock total and no Lunar Mist.Lots of Xtrcabs though.
Finally found a Lunar Mist with Chrome pkg that's coming in next week.
Seems dealers get a certain allotment of colors and can't order certain colors.
List is so they say as I haven't seen tyhe sticker $27970.
Cost me $25445.
1.9% financing-No rebate.
Didn't do great but they're hot sellers.
The Limited's are not being make anymore.
$1000 more for seats and Badges didn't sell that well as expected I guess.
Finding a Lunar Mist Limited is tough.

I'll wait till around 1000 miles and use synthetic.
I use Amsoil filters with Mobil 1 and change both twice a year.

sounds great since the mobil1 is api approved (which really doens't mean anything for a good synthetic but is great for warranty purposes.)
