    I haven't read up through these threads and didn't want to start another one but just watched this video and have to say this comparison seemed very biased.

    The biggest thing was about the mpg's. I know there is essentially no change other than cosmetics in the 2nd gens and they claim they could only get 15 mpg's out of the Tacoma? Really? When mine was stock I regularly got 20 mpg's and still get 17-18 now with the small lift, wheels, and tires and also think I lost a bit with the CAI. But they only got 15? BS! The rest they pointed out I guess could be true but they never wanted to bring up how they hold value but maybe because it's a new Colorado but still feel it should be noted how well the Toyota does despite all these "short comings".

    I'm sure the Colorado is nice and I'm not bashing it, just felt the comparison wasn't fair and the Tacoma doesn't get its fair shake.

    They kept on about the power seats. :jerkoff: but I am curious about the 4g in the new Chevys. Where do they get the signal? Does it not use your data from your phone? Or is it included with the purchase price? Or is it an add on like xm where you get a trial period? Not that it would sway me but it may be a nice feature pending if you have to pay extra for it.

    I still like the Yota much better myself.
