Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

I hope this is real, I just got a tingling sensation.

 

I doubt it, unless Ford is planning on replacing the Ranger with that atrocity.

That tingling is probably nausea.

 

Until it breaks down, like Fords often do.
Ever wonder why they painted it yellow?

 

I don't care for it either but 4 door truck version........ looks pretty good. Be even better if it had solid axles

 

Three years and 50,000 miles on my Raptor, not a single issue. Just incredible performance and ride quality.

 

The fuck

Prolly starts at $100k

I’d rather buy a raptor R

 

Is yours the 3.5 turbo version?

 

Yep!!

 

I love the “long term reviews” on YouTube where they have like 10k problem free miles. My buddies f150 was problem free til 100k and it’s had like 3 catastrophic failures from 100-150k (turbo, fuel system, something else)

 

50K is longer than I've ever kept a vehicle. lol

 

When I first started looking for a truck, I was thinking of a used Ranger since my newborn had one. Then I kept seeing Tacomas for sale that were pretty old and had well in excess of 300k miles on them and getting real coin for them. It was common enough to see that I decided that might be better for the long term than a Ford. I’m very happy with my choice.

 

Designed by the idiot that thought the heep pickup was a good idea.

 

The Gladiator has its purpose in life. I have one, it's kinda fun to drive, and it's unstoppable offroad.

What other vehicle has front and rear lockers, electronic sway bar disconnect, and can fit 35's with zero modifications?

 

Doesn't a Wrangler do all of those things?

If I really wanted a trail toy, I'd probably buy a 2-door Wrangler. I love Toyotas, but I'm not delusional.

 

I guess I really meant "what other truck" can do all that. lol

 

If I cared about trails, I’d skip straight to a buggy

 

I should have figured. There's no denying how badass Jeeps are. Plus, we can thank them for their influence on Toyota way back when.

A buggy would be pretty fun!

I suppose everything has its purpose. The 4Runner is really just the best compromise of what I want a vehicle to do. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have 3-4 vehicles (or more ), but that's just more parts to buy, more projects, etc.

 

ZR 2 Colorado (maybe not the 35s though..... Better break over angle to make up for it) lol

 

Yeah, but Chevy.

Edit: then again, we're already talking about Heeps.

 

My thoughts exactly.
