    Pretty soon we'll all have little turbo 4 bangers. Which, according to some, will all grenade within 6 months of rolling out of the factory. Personally, I'm not too concerned. If they end up being reliable, they'll be much better than the V6's we have now.

    FWIW, the 4Runner still has the 4.0. but, I'd probably be willing to trade it for a turbo 4 with way more usable power and better potential fuel economy.

    We do stuff in Kenosha occasionally, which is almost Illinois. Or, come to one of the mall crawler shows at Woodfield mall. :notsure:

    True! Up until last September, I was the only person who had seen you in real life. I still think you might be a hologram.

    And... So... Is... The... 2GR...

    I guess I'm not really sure what you're saying. You pointed out that the 3.6 is a minivan engine. I assumed that you meant that in a negative way. So, I pointed out that the Tacoma has a minivan engine.

    In all honesty, I think Potosi would be considerably closer to Sterling than Kenosha.

    That is kick-ass! (needs better tires, though)

    ...someone mention 80 stuff?

    Here @Thatbassguy, this is what you need in your life to satisfy your urges.

    Edit: I might be slightly biased.
