    not enough.
    i had a turbo four way back when. fun car. but it definitely wasn't going to win any sound awards. turbolag on it was pretty bad but not horrendous. I remember the top gear segment for the mitsubishi lancer evo x. with a 2.0l turbo...making 400+ hp. lots of power but...jeremy clarkson showed how bad the turbo lag was. lol.

    She still liking it? I have one as a rental car for work about every 4th week, and have come to enjoy them. I'm also a total convert on Android Auto. It's awesome sauce vs the older interface in our trucks. I'm thinking the TRDOR or the Hybrid Woodland will likely be my next vehicle. There's a dude who has his RAV4 decked out up the street from me (complete with widdle wadder) and actually looks pretty good while still avoiding the "Lifted Crosstrek" levels of insanity.

    I also drove a 58 Edition Land Cruiser yesterday. I'll be honest, I really didn't like it.

    -Had an I4 Hybrid
    -No disable button for auto stop/start being a hybrid
    -Driver area is weirdly tight side to side but CRAZY amounts of headroom, even as a 6 foot person
    -every dealer insists on adding those retarded "predator steps" that are dumb at being both sliders and steps
    -Still barely over 20mpg stock/reports are in the mid-teens as a built rig
    -$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    She likes it. Finding her bottles have been scratching the cup holder area, passenger seat doesn't go up or down like driver, so less headroom on passenger side. She loves the mpg. Its consistently over 40.

    Man i have been thinking about a 1958 LC. Theres a dealership that doesn't have markups, so its like 60k + tax tags. I havent sat in one though. And honestly im not looking for a new car or that payment.

    I really just want a GX470 or a 1999 Camry. I don't care about the mpg. I kinda want another thing to build. The Camry is so i can take advantage of 25 year old antique tags, and I can do small mods that I cant on my truck, and not have to worry about inspection or emissions.

    Im also just dumping all of my extra cash into my house to get it paid off in the next 1.5 years. Thats the main goal

    I'd just keep doing that. Being free and clear on a piece of property is a dream of mine.

    Starter homes around here thought start at like 700K though, it's insane. Between that and a 60mo LC note, just to break even with no other expenses, you need $130K/yr!
