    Oh, great :facepalm:

    As soon as Ford gets into the mix, next thing you'll see is "powered by Microsoft" inside. My last rental was a Ford Edge, not a bad driver for Interstate, but the "information center" was annoying as hell. :eek:

    If Toyota had offered a good hybrid when I was shopping for a truck, then I would have bought it, but they don't, WHY, cuz theyre selling Tacomas by the boatload and they don't have to, they should've built a hybrid Tacoma fucking years ago when they developed the POS Prius

    True, guess they'll be a run on the 2016 models. Wait a minute, if Toyota isn't gonna go a major lift until....when? Maybe they will just do bullshit till then.
