    This is a stupid question, but I was wondering how to know exactly what my truck is. I don't know anything but what my title says- 88 Toyota 4x4 Pickup. Is there a vin decoder or something to tell me the model? Heck, I can't even tell if mine is standard cab or extended lol. I've been a Chevy man all my life, but I've always liked Toyotas so I finally converted.

    Post up some pics..we can tell a lot from photos. Also show the interior. Go you have seats behind the driver and passenger? If so then its an extra cab.
