hahaha - a few mos ago I received a letter from one of the larger South Bay Toyota Dealers. They wanted me to come in and buy a new vehicle - offered me 10k for the tacoma. it certainly has changed. Never, not happening. This is with 158k mil.

 

Damn james bond, who you trying to take out

 

Dammmn

 

thats nice!

 

Scam, you can still get 8-10k for it easy

 

Lol I should try and take my Taco to carmax. Better yet, I should see if Camelback wants it. They try and get me to trade it and the cruiser in everytime I visit.

 

Trade both, get a tundra, trailer the Z

 

I don't really like tundras, it's a truck designed for a market that doesn't exist. The cruiser already can haul the Z just fine anyway.

 

You missed my point. The feature set doesn't match up to any real function. It doesn't really have a strong suit besides some people think it looks good. I realize people buy it, it has to be the most popular brodozer next to the Cummins. But what is it for, it doesn't have great towing performance, it gets awful MPG and performance is average, they never really customize the suspension or off-road goodies to make it seem better. Fleets never buy them. There's an aftermarket for that sure but Toyota doesn't even seem to think enough of it to affect that change. Most pickup manufacturers have levels of utility as well 1500, 2500, so on. The tundra is just that and a more expensive one that comes with a cooled seat or something. I guess it's the pickup truck for people that don't want a car? Even the Titan has a Cummins option for people that want to haul.

 

Also Toyota builds trucks in the states because of the chicken tax, which taxes foreign utility vehicles.

 

The titan cummin huals like a 1500 v8 ram. Its not really that great. You still gott go with a big 3 if you want a truck that can actually hual

 

How do you spell it wrong twice

 

Why are you suprised

 

Whatever works for them, I don't have an issue with Chevy or Ford trucks really. There's a reason the F150 is the best selling pickup since 1982. Sure they're bland, but they aren't unreliable. The Toyota isn't either but it cannot match the performance of any of the models above the 150,1500 ranges. I did borrow a 1st gen tundra while the head on my taco was being rebuilt though, it was fine, drove like a taco, which is also fine. There's nothing wrong with the tundra, it just seems to be a model without any ambition or purpose. It's a nice car replacement that can do work, I suppose that makes it a worthy upgrade from a Tacoma which isn't a great pickup but is still a great vehicle.

 

I know I'm not on the holiday list but....
