Toyota might make a Wrangler competitor.

^^^ This.

 

I sure wouldn’t mind a new one, maybe for my wife, to sit beside my ‘78

 

This is incorrect according to:

http://carsalesbase.com/us-car-sales-data/toyota/toyota-tacoma/

And


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Tacoma

They sold 190k+

 

I would too. But they cost way more, and Toyota will never bring it to the US.

Not only would they price out of the market, American's want posh, not bush.

 

they wouldn't end production on the 4runner. If anything they'd kill the land cruiser

 

There's a joke in there somewhere.

 

They’ll never kill the land cruiser, they’ll just stop sending them here.

 

Pretty sure there is a joke in there somewhere, but I want bush too.

I mean V8 diesel & Apple Car play.....shit is posh already.

 

hahaha....I was thinking and typing the same thing.

 

Yeah, i love the 70's

But they are Dinosaurs. Even with leather and a head unit, they are as bare bones as it gets lol.

200 series is Posh.

70 series is rather tight, rough, and just not refined.

American market would be like "my prius gets betted MPG" and "power stroke makes more power" and "my ridgeline rides better"

Look at how the critics treat the Tacoma, which is way more posh, refined and flabby than any 70 series. Lol

 

Hey, they brought us the Tacoma, I'm happy!

 

Yeah, saw an article about the trd getting a snorkel and it quoted some numbers, made me say 'waitaminute....' but I've been too lazy to correct, I figured someone would get the correct number and post it here. Thanks!

Wrangler still sells just as much though, so there's good scavenging potential there Toyota!

 

The market is definitely there!

 

Fast forward almost one year and it’s becoming a reality

 

And a seqoua as well hahah.

Total open diff land, really "PRO" grade

Man I am loving my Power Wagon and my 85 Toyota Combo more and more every day.

 

Keep the updated features list as short as fuel injection, lockers and drivetrain tech.. some safety stuff (excluding the 11teen extra airbags, radar etc) a decent radio, heat and air. Fuck I am down, I'll buy two.

I'll beat the tar out of one and the wife can drive the other. Trade the Tacoma in, keep the Wagon.

 

Also, here we are thinking Toyota "Might" make a wrangler competitor lol, Jeep IS going to make a Tacoma competitor.

Take it for what it is, the Gladiator how ever you may feel about it, is another entry in the segment. Lol. And it is one that offers way more directly aimed at the offroad small truck crowd.

Granted, mofo 85 Toyota still crushing souls at the KOH 2019 4600 class.
