The problem with the newer Toyota trucks is their gas mileage is HORIBLE and their ergonomic terrible...gages poor, especially if you wear cheaters, roll down a window and the thumping noise is unbearable, they are not great drivers, radiators clog with debris and are hard to clean if you ride through thick areas off road causing overheating, and some other stuff. My companies tacoma is in the shop constantly but its off road alot. Our tundra gets 13 highway and the Ford 150 ecos (all 4x4) get 23. I hate Toyota and would never ever own one, but I'm a minority opinion on this one. The Ford rangers, in my opinion, have always been much better. I like the old pre 90s landcruisers and fjs. My Dodge truck has that problem. You either let down all four windows or none of them.

We gotta pay off these Tacoma repairs first. Goodyear 0% interest for 6 months. Annnnnd my daughter wedding. hmmm....a wedding. You've got time to get you one of those mail order preacher certificates. Perform the ceremony yourself. Do it on the beach at Whiskey Joes and let the reception guests order drinks and snacks off the menu. Give the Tacoma to the newly weds as a wedding gift along with the Goodyear payment book. You can wave to the crowd as you and the wife drive off in the '22 Toyota Hilux. My daughters cousin is going to marry them. He's a great guy, very funny, and somewhat of a hippie. Her mom is Sicilian and isn't going to have any of that Whiskey Joes talk. LOL She's got over 30K in this thing now and it's going to be somewhere in South Tampa. I've been told I have to wear a tie(which I hate) but I'm willing to make a small sacrifice to keep the ex-wife happy. LOL My future son-in-law just bought his a 98 Tacoma that runs great and has ice cold ac. I think I'm keeping my Tacoma. No way in hell I'm parting with my truck. She's been a good one.

1outlaw, What do you think of the Mazda and Subaru SUVs? Why does every vehicle I look at these days all have 4 cylinders? Seems like a small motor for some of these SUVs. Subarus are great vehicles. Mazda is mehhhhhhh. Full diclosure, i own a avalanche with a 5.3 and has zero issues to speak of and has over $200k miles on it. Not 1 major repair. I turned off the AFM when i bought it. I did some truck shopping a few months ago and looked hard at a 4X4 Tacoma as i dont need a full size truck any longer. I cannot justify $50K for a mid size truck. GM product was my next option but i already own 1. My only want was a back up camera. So i made the decision that i would begin the process of building a motor for my truck. A gm 5.3 can handle a 1000 HP all day every day. I can build a 450 hp NA Daily driver with out issue. Bought a low mileage complete engine off of ebay a few weeks ago. I will begin the rebuild in the next 6 months. No hurry just figured it would give me something to do.

I hate sports cars. I hate getting down onto the ground to get in those cars. Getting out is a bitch too. Who the hell wants to roll in and out of a vehicle. LOL

I love sport cars. Getting in or out is no problem for a spry old fucker like me. It also helps being a small person. They are fun to drive. Women LOVE them. And they look good! My Ride !
