    Not far from Ashland where I hide out. Great hikes and beach when the weather is more friendly.

    I thought I heard about a possible April get together. Is that still happening (as I see a June gathering is being bantered about,,,)?

    Ya know... I put all the amenities in my 2nd gen. Heated seats, heated mirrors with puddle lights etc etc. Have not committed to the heated steering wheel. Lights everywhere. You could make yourself a nifty truck that is one of the cool ones...

    The test drive is done. Was a no option sv so this was a powertrain test mostly. It was comparable to the Tacoma I drove in some situations and better in others. From a dig it's definitely faster, but from some speeds you'd expect a 9 speed to find a little more power instead of matching a Tacoma. Still adequate at all speeds though. I see what people mean about heavy steering at slow speeds. If I was elderly or otherwise lacking in physical strength it'd be rough. Again, not an issue, but notable. Wind noise and road noise were a little louder than the Subaru but you'd expect that from a body on frame truck. So right now what it boils down to is availability and options for the money. Going to be patient and play it by ear.

    So. Many. Stickers.
    The heated seats and heated steering wheel are well worth it imo and Nissan did a fantastic job with those particular amenities

    My taco has heated seats which I love, but no heated steering wheel. I've always wanted a heated steering wheel, but just never experienced one.
