Tried to pass f150 eco boost today

Come down to AZ and buy an old toyota from some retired /nursing home bound bluehair. Find one that's been in the garage for 20 years+

 

That's a possibility. Maybe you can bird dog one for me.

 

Let me know when I'll keep my eyes peeled

 

Smitty you're in AZ? Moving back there in May.

 

Yes phx area

 

PCS? Why az? Just liked it here or originally from here?

 

I would like to find an old truck out west too, stuff around here rusts away.

 

Too goddamn hot in PX

 

PCS. Going back to Davis Monthan/Tucson. I loved my time in AZ.

 

"It goes down in the DM"

 

O.k. smitty, this should make you feel really good. Going to Whataburger to get some dinner in my wife's rav4, with my wife driving, sitting at a stop light next to us is a new F150. My wife looks over, pushes the sport button and waits for the light. I just sit there smiling and thinking, this is why I love this woman. Light turns green and she lets him have it, pulling away quickly, a few lights later, he catches up and won't even look our way.

 

Would have been smoked in the third gen!!!

 

Or a Turbo Escape lol. My wife went with an Escape because the Rav4 had trouble on the highway passing.

 

What year Rav, my moms got a 16' and it moves.

 

dont Rav4s come with knitting equipment standard?

 

We have a 2015 Rav4 and it is very impressive on the highway, comfortable and plenty of power to keep up and pass when needed.
And apparently very responsive off the line too.

 

We looked at a brand new one in December. The I4 wasn't bad but we commonly have 60 mph winds here and into them the RAV4 could barely hold speed on the highway let alone pass. Only the Tuscon and Escape felt like they had enough power into the wind. Both kept gear into the wind and could still pass on a two lane undevided highway into the wind.

 

Where are you located?

 

Southern Alberta. Just look up Chinook winds lol.

 

Seems like a lot of apples to oranges going on here...compare the passing or keeping up with a Tundra...you would be less disappointed. F150 is a full size 1/2 ton truck with a shit ton of torque and hp. Seems like Toyota is trying to go for gas mileage...they are just catering to the masses.
