    i was just looking at my work parking lot. Lots of guys that drive crap to work with 300k miles, but a select few amount of guys (probably big wigs) drive real nice vehicles.

    Got me thinking, what I would have bought with 30k+ if I didn’t buy a Tacoma... and I was lost haha

    You know, he’s got a point. Pre-Toyota I would have looked into some electric vehicle cause the future is now. Post-Toyota I will now look into a 1st gen 4Runner, tundra or Tacoma.

    Ya, we know you have become confused. Honestly, I should have gotten something bigger than the taco, I just find them fun to drive.

    Definitely fun to drive. But I needed a truck I could work, and was hoping that the F150 would cut it (it did not) so I bumped up to a 3/4. If Toyota comes out with a 3/4 ton Tundra someday, I'll be interested. :thumbsup:

    Too much.
    If I didn't firmly believe that a home owner should have a truck, and therefore did not need said truck, I'd be rolling in an S4.

    If it had to be new a Ranger probably. But reality is I'd look for a decent 89-95 Truck/Hilux to undo the mistake I made selling my 1991 for a newer truck.
