2005 Toyota Tacoma Regular Cab 2dr Regular Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl 5M)
Quality Second to None
 I've been looking for a truck for years before finally settling on the new Tacoma.  The Nissans didn't drive well after a few years, and the older Toyotas didn't come with much in the way of standard features.  I got a basic regular cab 4x4 with the 4 cylinder engine and 5 speed manual.  For a very basic truck, it comes loaded with many things that make it fun to drive everyday (cd player, ABS, etc).  I was skeptical about the "knob type" transfer case shifter, but it has worked seamlessly so far.  Overall it's nice to be able to drive something that does what a truck should do, and still feel like a raised camry.
