    The 2.7 is a nice motor. Very quick, I underestimated it for sure when I was shopping. I almost pulled the trigger on one but I love the coyote motor and this color. I was hooked when I saw it.

    I guess gas millage doesn't matter much to me my previous vehicles were lucky to get anything over 14 mpg now I have my Tacoma and a G35 Infiniti that only gets around 23mpg I drive that if I really care about gas mileage that day!

    Mileage is somewhat important. Range is often more important (critical). Last week I was about 70 miles from the nearest gas station on BLM ground hunting. I had to really limit my out and about travel off road. That's what intrigues me about the Babymax the most. Extended loiter time.

    So you're experienced with people buying something nice that turned out to be a problem.. yet here you are joking on a Ford owner like Tacoma's aren't problematic trucks?

    Get in touch with reality.

    28 they gave me 16 for my taco with bad paint high miles and an accident. Payments are low and it's super comfortable with all the baby gear

    Two-three 5-gallon jerry cans will solve that problem in 99% of situations. In some places finding diesel can be quite hard (or impossible). I'd rather carry more fuel to begin with.

    I posted this earlier. I have two hunting dogs and they ride in the back under my topper. That's a no-go on fuel back there.

    Never ran across a station in Montana that didn't have diesel. In fact there are stand-alone Marathon fleet diesel fueling station outposts in a lot of weird places. Handy for farmers and ranchers that live 200 miles from nowhere and need diesel for their tractors.

    Bro it was a no brainer for me, once my nuggets are grown and don't need strollers and bags and toys and bottles I will probably end up back in a Tacoma if they are problem free. For now in the foreseeable future this is exactly what my family needed and I've had good luck with Ford in the past.

    They had it priced at 33 to start. Just took some time to get the numbers right

    I understand completely.

    I'll be in a full size next now that I'm a parent.

    Reality is in tact. Was participating in a conversation about Colorado vs Tacoma. If I was trading in a Tacoma for a f150 it would be something I might like to know. All cars are problematic, you hope for the least problematic...

    That's just email alerts, not forum alerts.
