    the lil red only came with a 360 but a warlock you could get a 440 in.. :) i had a lil red in the late 90's.. fun truck but not fast enough for me at the time., this one will stay stock. being older now im more into being able to get in and drive it anywhere then it being the fastest thing..

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    My 96 Tacoma is my offroad play toy and my 87 Nissan 300ZX Turbo is my on road play toy. My 1993 Land Cruiser 80 is my daily. Life's too short to drive boring vehicles

    Hey Moondog! Fancy seein' you here outside of TFLT! Thanks much, the Honda, as you know is super fun to drive, stock except for Honda HFP Sport Suspension and a powder coated "Type R Red" valve cover. The other two GM's are original powertrains too, the Chevy has the 305 w/ 4AT, the Oldsmobile has original 307 w/ 3AT, both under powered. Lol! The Chevy needs more work and body is good for it's age considering it came from Maine, but has some rust. The Oldsmobile, has literally zero rust, maybe some surface rust on some of the frame, but always has lived an easy life in NY. The Oldsmobile will be getting a more modern powertrain which is a pull-out 5.3L LM7 w/ 4L60E trans from a 2004 Silverado 1500 (GEN III "LS" based). It's ready to go, just need to start the swap process, basically looking for a cruiser to hit some shows on occasion with some more power and something I can install that will look factory when completed.

    Yep, but the Lil Red was actually faster at the time than the Warlock, or so the numbers said. Dad had both at the same time. Neat trucks but I bet a V6 Camry would beat it now. My how times have changed. :)

    I loved my Mk6 Golf TDI. 1000 km to a tank in the summer, only had to fill up every three weeks. VW Canada gave me $20 000 for an $8 000 car, could not turn them down. That's how I came to have my Taco.

    Doesnt the land cruiser have the worst gas mileage? Kinda funny that's your dd.

    How many miles you got on it? I've been looking around for 93/94 land cruisers...pretty crazy how much they are going for with over 200k+ miles.

    Yeah the cruiser gets 13MPH hwy haha. It's in pristine like new condition though, got it from it's first owner who had it garaged in Cali. It had 172K when I got it, now it has 190K. Was a pretty penny to be sure.
