    At least they didn't attempt to burn their own city down after losing like Vancouver did when Boston won the Stanley Cup in 2011. That might be more of a Canadian thing though idk.

    Those and Suburbans are the de facto mom rides around here. GXs are a close second.

    Same in Tahoe. You see so many of them in the winter. All 2wd and chains on the front tires.

    That sounds about right haha.
    I was giving a family friend a little shit for swapping her GX for a Suburban, mainly about the seemingly unnecessary size, then I saw them loaded up for a trip with her daughter for a horse show. That was overland nerd packing levels. Told her, unironically, she might as well buy a Silverado and put a shell on.

    That reminds me as a kid my parents had the square style Dodge Dakota, it took them 2 years to get the Ram 2500 with an 8 foot bed because of horse stuff.

    Both Monica and I said no. 4Runner is plenty big enough.

    I just looked at their builder. That midnight pine color is nice. The world needs more green color options.

    Horse people don't mess around haha. They would always tell me, but I didn't get it until I saw it.

    The current-gen Sienna is pretty sweet though. AWD hybrid, 35+mpg, spendy but if you're looking at full-size SUVs you're already in that range.

    Idk about the reliability but they are nice inside. I wouldn’t mine one.

    also wouldn’t mind a ram 2500 but that kinda goes against the whole idea of trying to be able to carry people with car seats
