    That Ridgeline knockoff is busted...

    I think the RSC is Toyota's sexiest concept to date. I've hoped that the compact coupe/Jeep-like thing would take off :( This is several years old.

    Don't like that at all. I realize its a concept and will probably, if not already, be shelved but I hope they don't use aspects of it in the next generation of Tacoma's.

    With the midgate and tailgate down, they say you can fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood flat with no interference from wheel wells. That kind of cargo space would be handy in a vehicle smaller than a Tacoma. If they threw a diesel in it I would buy one for the practicality of it.

    I checked "No", but thats because there was not a "F*ck No" or * Hell No" option. That thing is Fugly. Looks like a big car, hate the ridgeline and the avalanche, Toyota doesn't need to go down that road.
