How I dodged the curse of the minivan

Hey T4R fans, my name is Joshua Manley

I've been a long time lurker here, ever since I purchased my first Toyota truck (A TRD/Prerunner, or maybe its the 4Runner starter kit?) I was really surprised at how many searches for Tacoma related items landed me here.

I was very happy with the prerunner until my kids were born, and even after that if I'm being honest. Then I find out its fricken impossible to fit a decent car seat inside. So, after three years of hearing how selfish I was for driving a truck that no one else (read: wife and kids) could ride in, I finally started looking for something I could put my family in without surrendering my manhood, (sorry minivan dudes, but you know what I'm talkin about) I actually started fantasizing about 4Runners after the 4th generation, they had a quality that was soo much like my Tacoma, but they already had everything I wished my truck had: projector beam headlights, LED taillights, bigger engine, and now a back seat!

Well after two years of lurking and latenight 4Play I finally pulled the trigger and traded my Taco in on an 06 SR5 4WD.

And thank God I did! Less than a week later I got an offer I was not suppose to refuse from a relative on a loaded 2002 Honda Odyssey.
Oops Sorry, I just got a family car :) I still had to google it, yikes.

Now whenever I see one, I'm like "They see me rollen..."


Anyway, sorry it took me so long to make a formal introduction.
