    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.

    That's nice. Except there have been no small pickups since the 80s.

    The current Tacoma is equal to a full size of the 90's.

    Technology and engineering certainly help make safe, but so does bulk. Not to mention what an attentive defensive driver can accomplish.

    Took me 19 years to talk my Ol'man into selling it to me. He bought it in 98 and I fell in love with it the first time I drove it.

    Yeh, I gotta put a new suspension under it but it runs like a fkn top. Transmission is still tight as hell with 193k on it.

    Where are you all finding 90’s Tundras? Tundra didn’t hit the showrooms until 2000...:rofl:
