    Maltec was putting the 70s series body on the 80 chassis to skirt the import laws (speaking of our government overlords why we can’t have cool things) to sell them in the States……buuuuut, Covid kinda squashed that.

    https://www.maltec.org/toyota/

    Expeditions 7 did have one built on the 200 chassis for the US market. Gaaawd that must drink fuel like no tomorrow.

    You have a reading comprehension and assumption problem. I didn't assume anything. You said people should be able to use their own judgment, and I replied "what if their own judgment is [inaccurate]." But I'm not going to pursue this point further. At least not with you. Because I'm taking a big shit right now and need to concentrate.

    Holy shit. And that coming from a Texan! If you have good access to white gas, I'll send you my 40 year old Coleman camp stove so you don't die this winter.

    BEV are like battery powered sex toys. Yeah they get the job done, and might get you there quicker than the real thing, but it's not natural.
