from the looks of things they are pretty rare, i must be very lucky. i went out car shopping today and the toyota dealership down the road from my house had 1 new regular cab 4x4 just off the truck. they didnt even have time to put their crappy decals on there (the ones i usually peel off).

the salesman told me it was the only one in WV (i thought he as full of it until reading these forums). i will post some pics tomorrow, i just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.

Welcome! Enjoy your taco!

Regular cab 4x4s are getting somewhat rare. Most people opt for Xtracabs and DoubleCabs nowdays. If you are spending $20,000 on a regular cab 4x4, whats abother $5000 for a V6 and an Xtracab? :dunno:

What's $5,000 for a V6 and extra cab? A lot of money! To each their own, but I couldn't justify spending that much more on stuff I didn't need (but wanted). If I had the money I would have done it though.

At 0%, you can add ~17.oo for every 1k on your loan. That comes out to 85.oo extra bucks. Dosent really sound like alot, until you figure that the ~17 is @ o%, and when most people are already streatching themselves for the 5oo+ a mo that most people are paying for their new trucks.

I totally agree with the want, but cant afford. :sosad:

 

[grizwald]

in my case my credit wasnt perfect so that 5k would have added quite a bit AND i had traded in a 2002 chevy silvarado that i was in the hole on .. so i had to eat about 3k with my trade in.

also, i wanted the 4 banger for fuel economy and i dont really need the extra cab. that said if i had the money i would have prolly went for the v6/xtracab .. lol

 

[NorCalTacoma]

I like my DubCab. I didn't even think twice about getting anything less.

Now 7 months into the truck, I kinda like the access cabs. I don't really carry passengers. I have had passengers in my truck about 7 times total in 7 months.

I should have got the access cab to save money and install a fat sound system. I should have fuckin' got an X-Runner. They had them in every color at my dealer!

 

[lotust]

ohh god lets get way way OT again here. hehehe

Nice seeing more Reg Cabs :thumbup: post up some pics

O% financing on Tacoma's?? With dealers barely able to keep these on the lot, where the heck are you getting financing from??

no doubt. cough it up.

Regular cab small and midsize trucks with good 4x4 systems are virtually unstoppable offroad machines.

Trucks like that built the Toyota reputation.

If I didn't have a little one, I wouldn't have a DC.

Excellent choice! Have fun with the truck!!! See you in another 300k miles!

Im still single and dont have any kids, so for me Id probably go with a regular cab. However, most people figure that if you are going to spend $20,000 for a reg cab 4x4, why not go all out and get the V6 4x4 Xtracab? :dunno:
I can understand them money concerns, but if you are stretching yourself that thin every month, perhaps you should look into buying used.
I myself just love the looks of a regular cab truck. It just doesnt look right with a D-cab when the cab is just as long (or longer) than the bed.
However, a lot of people have families and like to take stuff with them that they dont want to thow in the bed, and thats why Xtracabs and D-cabs outsell regular cabs 10-1.

Congrats Man I hope you enjoy it like I enjoy my reg cab 4x4!

I love my double cab, especially after owning a '99 extended cab Tacoma. But nothing wrong with a single cab either. All that matters is that you like it and it fits your needs.

Hope you enjoy your new truck!

I've got a 2005 Tacoma Reg Cab 4X4 in black. $5k is alot! Why not spend another $7K on top of that and get a Tundra? Everyone needs a $600 Truck Payment

yep... this is one reason I opted for a reg cab. I traded in a 97 pathfinder se. They gave me $6000. My payment at 5.4% is 270$ a month. :thumbup: Like mstdenis said. Why not just get a tundra then ? lol

Get what suits your needs. Even though I should have bought an extended cab :bash:

 

[81shark]

mine is perfect for me.

06 access 4x2 with a I4 and 5 speed.

no need for 4x4. only two or three bad snows per year, and i don't off road

don't need the V6, i've got a sports car

Tundras are for old men and construction workers and ranchers. Tacomas have personality and attitude; yet they're refined and sporty.

Right now you can get a Tundra cheaper than a Tacoma. They're clearing out the '06 models in anticipation of the new '07s.

I would never own a full-size truck. I would never own a Tundra. But that's just me.

 

[TRD Hunter]

yeah im with count ive alwaysb had a mid size truc, dont intend on changing

i hope you enjoy your knew taco!
