    That's what I've heard. The Camry has 180k miles too, so having something with less would be nice. My buddy takes his 5th Gen SR5 everywhere.

    The only problem with that is I'd build the 5th gen too

    That's why I've debated a Ram or Subbie...won't mod those.

    I vote Subie. It'll give you less problems in the long run, and they warm up so freaking fast its unreal.

    I love the front end of the one @SixthSnail , but can't afford one that new. I assume the 4Runner has a huge difference in the back seat

    Haha. Really though 5th gens are sweet.

    I'm hoping to go to Anza soon. Just ordered a relentless roof rack and a new grill for their bumper that fits a lightbar.

    I'm really dabating the 5th. Went out with a couple 5th gens over the summer and they rock.

    Probably going to be around $25k...been looking at 2010 SR5's. I like the front ends of the 2014's but can't swing that much right now.

    My brother bought a rental F-150 and it's been good to him, so it wouldn't bother me too much. I would prefer it not be. My buddy has a 2010 SR5 as a trail rig and a 2017 Trail as his boarding rig. He loves his SR5

    I love the 2010's. If I ever get a chance to get one I think I'd bite.

    Nice, can't complain about having a taco as commuter. We are paying on two places which isn't cheap out here. Main concern now is the ski resorts are an hour and half away, don't really want to keep doing that in the 3rd gen
