It is absurd to "always eat at home" in your 20s.
My advice to him originally, before he posted that he was engaged, was actually going to be just not to eat out by yourself. That is something that I, as a recent graduate with a long distance SO, follow pretty well. Adding in a fiance obviously changes that a little bit..

I do have a slight hijack/question. I will, when I get done grad school in a year, need a new truck. Strongly considering a Tacoma for their reliability. Will it be better to get an older (~100k miles) for $15-18k or just bite the bullet and get a new one? They hold value extremely well.

I agree with you. I've noticed too though that you can guide your group/friends to a good deal restaurant too to help your cause even more.
For example, we go to lunch at Mellow Mushroom on Mondays since it $1 slice day. Wednesday is $5 Burger Day at a local bar that serves great burgers. It has become "tradition" and a very affordable "eating out" tradition at that
From my observation, most people would be happier with their income/budget if they had better cost control on budget categories, not increased their income.
