    I remember trying to buy my first toyota back in 1990, seems like it was $9000 for a basic 4wd truck.

    Accounting for inflation, $9000 in 1990 = $14,683.70 in 2009 according to THIS calculator.

    I don't think you can buy a new 4x4 for that much, but I bought my '09 reg cab 5-lugger for less than that.

    Ok, you should buya Tundra then. It's probably cheaper.


    At leats this thread hasn't gone all "I want heated seats, I want a rear defrost.." it's stuck to "I want things a TRUCK should have."

    1. Bigger interior door handles, they are too small for my hands
    2. Bigger foot pedals
    3. Coin holder
    4. Dash column shifter option
    5. V8 engine option :D , which will never happen
    6. V6 is fine but a little more power would be great.
    7. A slower rain wiper setting
    8. A lockable storage area under the rear seats.
    9. A hidden lockable storage area somewhere under the truck to hide keys or other stuff, for when I go riding.
    10. This may look funny but maybe a stepside option
