Well, my 2010 is a lease... so maybe I should trade up to a Baja Taco? I don't think I like the paint ... they should at least have a map of the peninsula on it!

"Baja"????


Looks like they took the publicity photos along US 395 in the eastern Sierra below Bishop........instead of Baja.

And they are going to build the "Baja" in Texas instead of their plant in Baja..... :lol:

I thought the very same thing! The only real improvement with this Baja Taco (I think) is the BFG All Terrain TAs instead of the cheaply made BFG Rugged Trail TAs that they put on the standard Off Road TRD.

The second gen. Double Cab or 4 door (2005+) back seat is full size and as comfortable as any small 4 door sedan back seat.

DT, that is the main reason I chose the 2006 Tundra Double Cab to bring down on my move to La Paz. 4 full doors, great seats, power sliding rear window, small 4.7 V8, and of course, 4WD!!! I had the 2009 Tundra TRD Double Cab, but that 5.7 really sucked the gas, and they are huge! The wife scraped both mirrors within a month.

Don't remember? Yes, a four door, Double Cab... You are thinking of the Access Cab Tacoma (has 'half doors' like you describe and seats big enough for kids only).

Here is my truck parked near your tent in El Volcan wash, and up at La Olvidada barite mine, last April:





Hey David, you better write the trip report before you forget any more, yes? ;D

yep, that definitely looks like chiminey peak in background (under the truck) but 395 is too close to the mountains for it to show up under the truck. I think it was tanken somewher along the road to Trona.:?:
