Trever what year Tacoma did you have again? 5spd?

I have a 2001 reg cab 5spd Tacoma I daily and get a solid 23mpg 70hwy/30city. I'm looking into getting a newer reg cab, but not if the mpg is worse.
'06 auto.

It just took $93 to fill up my truck with diesel at $3.79 a gallon. That really hurts my pockets. I'm a student living on $100 a week, so that leaves me $7 dollars if I wanna drive my truck. Guess I'll be driving the shitbox for a long time to come.
