    I traded my 76 chevy PU that had all sorts of problems on a new 86 Toyota PU, 24 years later I still have that old Toyota with 334,000 on it. I bought a new Tacoma last summer and so far so good!

    Every trucks tailgate is able to be removed easily and quickly infact the tailgate on my silverado if faster because you don't have to unplug the backup camera. Have you guys owned other trucks :p ?

    lol. Making a joking title about a country's vehicle is inappropriate, but wishing death or harm on someones life isn't?

    What has this world come to :confused:

    no, the term "jap" is inappropriate...there are many other derogatory names that are unacceptable as well. if you need any other terms not to be used, watch "gran torino"

    i read the whole post you made...racist talk provokes emotions in people. we've had more civilized conversations in the religious and creationism threads. if anyone else wants to bring up racist talk or talk about harm to others, it'll get locked.

    They still make the "Danger Ranger", but I would seriously advise against getting one. The only advantage of the Ranger is it is cheap, and the most fuel efficient 4 cylinder truck on the market. It is only available in extended cab, no full 4 door option. The 6 cylinders are using a motor designed in the mid 90's, and can't compete with any other truck on the market. The body is virtually unchanged since 93. 7 or 8 years ago, the Ranger was a great truck, but now just about anything else is better choice.
