    More yukyuk of no particular interest, last time I visited the Canadian side of Niagara Falls we had a pickup full of stuff we had collected from various relatives and places. I never gave it a thought when we went in to Canada. When we returned the immigration official asked if we had anything to declare. We said no and he let us pass after a hard look at all the stuff. This was in the 90's so times were different I suppose.

    PO
    No collateral damage to note, but I will say I was very impressed by the border patrol when entering into Canada. Not sure if things were this way back in the 90's, but it is very difficult to take children into Canada if you are not their parents. Thank goodness we were well prepared with all the documentation now required (passports, letters from parents, medical concerns). The internet helped out a lot in putting together everything needed. As for the return trip, How long were you there? Do you have anything to declare? Okay have a nice day...

    Been thinking about this for about a year now and finally decided to take the plunge. Say hello to my little friend!

    Those things Never loose very much value! I wanted a Tacoma but could never find one in decent shape that wasn't too expensive for me. I ended up buying my 08 Tundra used in 2012...and was offered $1,000 less than I bought it for by the dealership two months ago. I don't drive it much (only 51,000 miles) but other than a coolant line seal going out it has been problem free!

    Well I can thank my wife for leading me in the right direction as I had been considering a used truck. But I just couldn't justify a vehicle with 90,000 miles on the odometer and a $28,000 price tag. Once I decided I would go with a Toyota I began looking at the different trim levels and was leaning toward the entry level SR or the SR5. But my wife being the bells and whistles gal she has always been convinced me to be patient, save my money and eventually I would be able to step up to the TRD Sport. I am still learning about all the bells and whistles packed into this truck, but man I am glad I heeded her advise. As the saying goes, behind every successful man is a surprised woman.

    Traded in my wife's 2003 Chevy Malibu last year and it had less than 46,000 miles on it.
    May the force be with us.
