    Everyone always wants more, but... ultimately he's right, isn't he? Toyota sells these things like hotcakes, so clearly they understand the market.

    Don't get me wrong. I want more, bigger, better. But, I still bought this truck so he knows me. Us. lol.

    You mean to say Toyota's C-level executives do not lay awake at night, sweating and shaking over the latest "Letter to Toyota" posted on TW? I don't believe it!

    The 245,000 people who buy this truck every year. Not the 5,000 that show up to read or post on TW. I know this will astound you, but not everyone's hobby is their vehicle.

    Toyota denies plans to bring this or other diesel engines to the U.S. market, saying “diesel is presently not part of our strategy for North America. We are still bullish on conventional engines, hybrids and fuel cell technology.”

    Relentless Armored! Too many others to list.
    Colorado/Canyon twins say otherwise. And frankly I love the little diesel in those trucks- Great torque makes for really nice drivability and less transmission gear hunting plus impressive fuel mileage. If my wife hadn't got her way I'd have one of them for my DD. And yes we have 2 other diesels currently, one being a 3/4 ton Chevy so I'd love to see more in the US market.
