Sold the Tacoma for this..

Yes, click bait. I know. I got a job that requires extensive travel to the Tacoma as a DD wasn't going to work. Had 150k miles and I was only getting 12mpg. So, I bought a better DD and then a cheap 4x4. I'm not really upset about it either.

Daily.


Xterra. Bought it bone stock in December. Here's how it sits today.

 

What mpg's are you getting with the Acura? Does it take 87 octane? I've always liked the appearance of those TLX's and they seem to be reasonably priced used a couple years old.
and the Duratracs look nice on the Nissan

 

I get anywhere from 28-32 MPG but I use premium. My wife has an RDX w/ the same engine and she uses regular. There's some surging on acceleration in her car so I stick with 93 but it's a pretty fun car for what it is. Duratracs are bomb. This is my fourth set. I had gone through 3 sets on the Tacoma.

 

I've put 20k miles on the TLX already no issues. It's comfortable, quick, etc. My wife has a 2015 RDX that we've only had to change the oil and do 1 timing belt on. Nothing else and we've had it since new. They're good cars but there's plenty of complaints on here about the tacoma too, so anything will have issues.
