    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.

    Toyota should be different in my opinion. They should keep it. People say they don’t sell too many because you can’t get a manual . I think if Toyota produced more they would sell more . I also feel from a sales prospective the Tacoma is often seen in the same circles as Jeep and if Jeep has it why not Toyota. If I were at the helm I would also keep a v6 option. Maybe a pro with a v6 with a touch more horsepower .

    Those trucks of the 70s and 80s were terrible. I’m glad they’re gone.

    Not a millennial and not a bommer, so glad to be a member of the inconsequential generation.

    I'd trade my solar octane for all 4 of them. My wife might leave me, my boys would think I was a God. I'd need more tools.

    They're out there but I'm not one. There are people who are way more ambitious than I'am but I'm not much for working OT.

    As a former car dealership sales director I can tell you confidently that we did not receive advance secret news about Jack shit. I did get to drive new vehicles before released to the public. Nothing cool just new generations of stuff.

    LS1 swap with nitros.
    Kia and Hyundai could easily fix their theft problem if they just sold manual transmissions only. Not a single car would get stolen by todays hoodlums.
