    Here's my deer cart... I found it online 4 months ago [ebay] in Doylestown, PA. Drove over 200 miles to see it and bought it on the spot. It's a 2008 and closing in on 100k miles.

    in 7 years of driving I have had 6 vehicles (5 of which were trucks). Finally settled on the one this past August. Will drive this for MANY years to come now.

    2013 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Limited Package with all the options including ones I didn't know existed for Tacomas (heated leather seats). This spring I will put a Leer 100XQ Shell with roof rack on it. Gotta have as much room as possible for my 12 week work/hunting roadtrip out west next fall!

    Here is mine, a 1997 GMC Sierra, 5.0 liter, 4x4, add a leaf in the back, cranked torsion bars in the front and torsion bar keys, Flowmaster exhaust, 285/75r16 tires, seat covers, K&N air filter, and tinted windows. I actually got pulled over yesterday for my windows being tinted too dark. The side windows tested at 17%, and the KS legal limit is 35%. Im just glad they didn't test the back glass, as its 5% :evilgrin:

    Did you see the new 2015 F-150? It looks pretty awesome, the body is aluminum.

    Yep!

    Here's mine. 2005 Tacoma TRD AC. Bone stock except bilstein 5100s in the back and 265/75/16 Goodyear Durtracs. Bought it used in 07 for $5k under blue book and have had it paid for since 08. I want a fullsize truck, but all of the money I'm saving will be going to the future land/home fund :)

    It was nice not having a truck payment, but there was no way to cart the kids around. That and the truck payment is still less than the wife's Buick payment

    It's funny how we as guys always want what we don't have. I started with a Powerstroke 3 years ago and kept trading down in size until I got the Tacoma to find what I wanted. Longevity, easier parking, easier off road maneuvering, and up until I started driving it I THOUGHT better mpg... That turned out to be a pipe dream, many full sizes get what I get in mpg.

    Maybe when you get your dream land you can finally upgrade to a full size then if you still feel the urge.

    I am perfectly fine driving this daily with just me. Once we have kids, the AC will be almost useless. Not to mention how creative I have to get when hauling loads of firewood and full sheets of sheathing, 8 and 10' lumber, etc., Although a trailer would solve those problems.

    I knew ahead of time that this truck wouldn't get great gas mileage for its size, but in the end, I bought it for $17.5K, and saved a ton of money from even used fullsizes at the time. I'm perfectly happy with it, and I have no plans to get rid of it anytime soon.

    Besides, we have a kid hauler now (my wife's car):D
