    I thought when you rolled over a Prius that it smelled more like ozone from all the batteries shorting out. :D

    I have backed onto a geo metro before. All I heard was the sound of my insurance going up :(

    Telescoping wheel is nice but I have long arms so its just a luxury.

    It's all in my head at the moment...
    Also on the double cabs, when you flip the rear seat bottoms up and the seat backs down, you have to remove the rear headrests so the seat backs sit flat and flush. There are two holes in the seat back. Those holes except the headrest rods. The headrests fit in the holes so they aren't flopping around and getting dirty.

    I found this out on a whim. Ok, I'm done.

    OK, I'm reading " Headless Broomstick Bass "......Is that really your user name? Never ever considered using that phrase but, well, allright, there it is. lol.


    Back on topic, my Taco has 2 things that telescope when I'm all up in it with. Have to have the wifey with me to activate it tho, lol.

    Maybe it's fine for you, but I have long legs. I like it to be close enough that I'm not leaning forward all the time to saw at the wheel on tight trails.

    And what about opinions?
