    Frontier! I just dont like the DB's in the frontier. Access cab is cool but not functional for me. Hard choice! Titan, for sure but not an option to vote on.

    I think i would protest and ride a bike. I am worried to buy a GM, Dodge or a Ford until after all the problems get resolved, I would consider the zuki or a nissan, Also VW might has a truck soon.

    ^Worried about what? They aren't going away. Never fear, or wonderful politicians will bail out their union friends with our money.

    Well the dodge dealer closed up shop in my town. the chevy dealer will be following suite. I think the service will really go to hell when they have no one to work on the trucks. I don't know. This is why I got a toyota.

    Stick on hood scoop from Autozone.
    I would probably get a Nissan Titan.


    But I would never get anything besides a Taco, so it doesn't really matter. :)

    You make a good point about dealerships closing because there are just too damn many. The domestics are WAY over the top with that. I remember seeing figures that were something like 3-4 times what the foreign makes have. So, yeah, I can see some closing because they have over saturated the market but at the same time I think you'll find there will still be some within a decent driving distance.

    A few bolts are different.
    something big and diesel, leaning towards the GMC sierra 2500 hd with 6.6-liter turbodiesel producing 300 hp and 520 lb-ft. with performance upgrades I could maybe be around 420hp:D

    I went with the Dakota cause it comes in a V8 but a Ranger would be nice as well. But I'd rather get a full size truck.

    None of the above! If I couldn't have a Toyota, I would buy a sports car.

    4Runner or Range Rover. No other truck is as appealing as the Tacoma, so I'd bite the bullet on an SUV.
