The wifeās car died, so I finally had a legit reason to get the truck Iāve wanted.
Goodbye. No more Chevrolet ever. Welcome- Tacoma. I hope to have this forever. When itās no longer my everyday truck, I hope to make it into my retirement camping vehicle.
I decided to get some dirt on the tires and break it in this weekend. I had to, you know, make sure the locker and the off road stuff all works.

That question came to my mind several times in the past. Iāve to constantly calculate things in my job and I couldnāt live without numpad.
Nice Tacoma! Iāve always liked Toyota and currently drive a Tundra.
Whatās that thing in the sky by the cloud in the middle of the picture?

Totally agreed on standalone keyboards. No numpad is an instant disqaulifier for me. I wonāt even CONSIDER a keyboard that doesnāt have one.
Oddly, on laptops, Iām the absolute opposite. I DESPISE +10 keypads on laptops due to them making you off center to the monitor. So a numpad on a laptop is an instant hard pass for me. 
I believe itās a kite.
The wind was absolutely rocking.

The fally.of buying used cars.
Itās almost as if this was a crashed car I had to fix!
How can you guys live without a numpad?
I understand, Iām an older guy who learned typing when those keyboards didnāt exist. Numpad for entering number? Iām a ninja!
But eventually I realized I move my hand away form the home-row every time I type numbers. Thatās not very efficient. Maybe it would be better to have learned typing numbers on the main keys in the first place.
So I forced my self to switch. Yes it was painful in the beginning, but itās fine now. And - maybe thatās an age thing too - it feels like less straining having the mouse hand not so far out.

I learned to type before keyboards (let alone numpads) but the first chance I had to get a numpad (with its OWN home keys moulded in) I took itā¦ It as a little odd to have a hardware numpad attached to a C64 - but good for entering those magazine ML programs!
Yes, I am in the numpad or forget it box nowā¦
I donāt even remember that was a thing. And yes, I had a C64 too. - If you type in listings or calculation tables all day go for it, no objection. 
Separate item, wired through the cartridge port - then wired to an expansion (5 ports) that was itself through the cartridge portā¦ 3 game carts, 1 printer interface, and the numpad
I still have the expansion port in the back of my C128D - but the numpad is now replace by a built-in to the C128D keyboard!

The screen is superb. The split screen is pretty sweet, but I havenāt delved into whatās possible with split features. Itās much faster than my Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus. The pen is a nice touch, I havenāt used it much yet though but itās fun to use. Boot up doesnāt really take a long time. The fingerprint sensor takes between 1-2 seconds closer to 1. Screen gets decently bright but I havenāt check outdoors in sunlight. Battery is massive and I havenāt noticed any draining at all but I donāt do strenuous things so thereās that to consider. The UI looks impressive.
Not much more I can offer since itās a new experience coming from an Amazon tablet and Iām still learning.
