    Eh, a post 06 2nd gen 4.0 on a rust free frame to me would be hard to turn down. Seems the 1GR is holding up well to longevity.

    Oh I’d definitely rock a Sequoia, it’s just too damn big and I don’t need another 15 MPG vehicle.

    Now thats a mom car. My mom has an 06. Things at 170k and hasnt had anything but oil changes and brake pads since new, besides the usual 90k mile timing belt job. Hasnt aged well in terms of looks imo, looking pretty dated.

    What’s wrong with the ‘05 again, something about head gasket?

    I was looking at 4th Gen Runners too, they’re a little newer and the 03/04 are in my price range.

    I dunno. I feel like all early 2000’s Toyota and Lexus SUV’s are bland looking.

    Im honestly eyeing a Ford F150 with a 5.0 in it as a possible future truck candidate. Dunno if I wanna stick with a midsize after I get sick of the 04, and the Tundras are gas pigs. Be interesting to see what the next gen brings to the table.

    Blinkers are throwing a fit, hazards don’t work and the horn doesn’t work.

    I ran out of time last week to get everything going right

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Have to agree, for a while I was thinking about worthy swaps if I were to swap out the straight 6 in the cruiser (not a fuckin chance in hell cause it's just too good) but if it just stright up blew up somehow and swapping was easier I'd consider a 3UR, 1GR, or an LS 6.2. That's about it. But right now even though I said I wouldn't do it. I'm going right for a turbo. Cause who doesnt like to hear a straight six with a snail.

    But the 1GR is solid and is gaining more performance parts everyday.

    Probably not a problem where you live, but F150’s are so excessively large. And I’ve only driven a 2010’s F150 single cab 10 ft bed. Where I live, the smaller the vehicle the better.

    I think my neighbor got rid of his 1st gen Taco for a new single cab Titan.

    No, I’m sure the horn and hazards are a burnt fuse from some exposed wiring I found, but ill figure it out later
