Another one bites the dust

lockers > bling

 

But no one knows when you have a locker.

Everyone knows when you swinging the bling.

 

but this will be the first 3rd gen you will own. post up after 6 months into the 2017.

 

I already had a 16 TRd OR with no issues before I traded for my 17

Is my Tacoma built to the standard of the 200? Of course not!!!

But the Tacoma is a 22000 truck with 20k of options

200 series is 84k

You can't compare the two

 

I've got my eyes on a 17 Trd off-road in mag gray.

 

That is what I am getting.

 

I'm now drooling on the power wagon. Mmmmmmmm...

 

I like those too but not sure about a Dodge.

 

FCA products leave a lot to be desired.... in the quality dept

 

My buddy has a Hellcat Challenger, 6 Speed and its pretty damn awesome. A Challenger, Viper, and maybe a Jeep would probably be the only things I would want from FCA.

 

I drive a dodge ram 1500. I got the last year before Fiat took over and ram broke off as it's own thing.

Don't buy one.

The power wagon looks amazing but jeez that mpg haha. It would be my every day vehicle on top and I see the mpg is 10-13. Friggin powerful truck though. Front and rear lockers right out the gate.

 

I did just the opposite. I hated the way my 2016 4Runner Limited handled. Top heavy, too much sway, lack of power, felt like a tank so I traded it for a 2017 TRD Off-Road Tacoma. Always preferred the Tacoma anyway. This is my 6th one I think.

 

There is no better factory-equipped truck. That's for damn sure.

 

Good riddance. Limited 4 Runner has one of the ugliest Japanese front ends ever made.

 

Lack of power. Right.

There's a 300 pound difference in weight which is nothing really. The 4.0 pulls the 4Runner around just fine. Yes, is sways a little and nose dives some when you slam on the brakes, but shocks can fix that easily if desired. The KDSS models are firmer on the road.

My Trail Premium is awesome. I don't miss my Taco much. I love having more dry storage. I missed the Taco a little Monday when I needed to haul some materials home from Home Depot to make fence repairs. But it wasn't a big deal hooking up my 8x12 trailer.

 

We like the SR5 overall. I preferred the Trail premium but it was too macho for the wife. We settled on the SR5 Premium but she wishes it had more tech gadgets like the Limited. She just doesn't like the bling and the wood trim. Limited kind of looks like a geezer ride. The low end power in the 4runner is better than my Tacoma for sure. Much more responsive on the pedal.

 

I had a great run with my 98 2500 Dodge. But it was a diesel and a 5spd manual.

Not a fan of their automatics.

But the Power Wagon has some serious goodies on it. You can get the Tradesman with the Power Wagon package and save a little coin.

 

Man you barely got the Silverado and now you're selling yourself on the power wagon!
