    Hey Guys, Ice coach here, obviously i am a high school hockey coach, and also player myself. Bought my first Toyota after owning years of Ford trucks and a Jeep Liberty, just got tired of them breaking down with serious problems at 100K miles. Did my research and everything points to these badboys lasting way longer. Love it so far. truck feels like it is built like an M1A abrahms, gotta love that. Only thing that surprised me was no intermittent wipers, but minor inconvenience. As soon as i pay off my daughters wedding, i plan on doing some minor customizing. Here's a picture of the beast. Safe driving all. coach

    Welcome Coach ! My friend bought the same truck only an 08 in Aug and we took it down to S.C. in Sept and avg 24.5 miles a gal overall. His has the 2.7 with 5spd trans. I agree with you on the wipers and on the trip I wished it also had cruise but truck was great.
