    That gen of Tundra tried really hard to look like the F150, interior was very similar as well

    My guy I never said I hated them. You can like something and still admit it's ugly.
    Bingo! That is why people buy them.

    Toyota literally ripped off ford's designs in that era, and why wouldn't you when they are the best selling pickup.

    Other than the interior I’d say the face lifted first gen tundras have aged ok compared to those fords though. But holy shit I hate the roundness of my interior

    I'm the opposite. I will not buy something I dislike from the start. I know people who will buy a tacoma even though it's not the color they want, not me.

    The difference is build quality. But I know I have caught myself multiple times seeing and oncoming Tacoma only for it to be an f150 by the time it passes me. Hell my Ford van shares the same nose styling as the 98-00 Tacoma lol. Grill shape and headlights are spot on copies.

    What da hell are you guys taking about? The damn 95 to 97 tacoma look like they hit every branch on the way down after getting dropped from a tree and face planted.

    Those body are ugly and look like my 1995 Nissan pickup.

    And if they won't pay up, proceed to ruin the reputation for everyone.

    I'm thinking more like a 1st gen on Craigslist tires with a rattlecanned logo. Then choose your angle... "pay me to keep driving this" or "pay me to stop driving this."
