    Same thing with most Jeeps. They buy them to be a car that's shaped like a shoe box. :)

    They should have taken the 4runner front and used that.. not the squinty eyed large mouth bass look.

    you misunderstand. its the function over cost that would be the deciding factor.
    Just because it costs more does NOT make it better.

    I would wave but:
    1 You would not see it anyway over that big ass ugly grill.
    2. Majority of time I am not sure if its Tacoma or Ford fusion. Both grills are exactly the same. It could be rolled Subaru too. So by the time I figure it is 3gen Tacoma I am like F the wave ..
    3. Can't wave when you have a grim on the face because what you see is ugly.
    However, I will try waving when I am passing 3gen trucks. They seem to struggle around the hills, they do look cute when they try climbing things.
    :D

    New Colorado diesel gets a confirmed 31 mpg highway (2wd) 29 mph highway (4x4). Hot off the press. I hope GM sells a lot. Then maybe Seatbelt Mike will give us a real truck engine.

    I've now seen a few in person. It does look much worse in pictures. Got a chance to really look at a couple while working the last couple weeks. They look decent up front. I'm still not a fan of the giant grill, but it doesn't look as bad as in the pictures.

    The chrome grill, however, is just flat out awful. That one does look terrible.

    Ha ha or those people got some lobotomy done.
    When I go to dealer, I see 2016 those grills stick out from row of vehicles like a sore thumbs. It's in your face ugly. Maybe a reason why they not selling them very well over here.
