    Yeah, that sounds more accurate. I knew it was something like that but didn't want to take the time to look it up. Pretty cool view either way. :cool:

    I think it's interesting that the Tacoma was with the Lexus NXes. I hope that means that they are putting the twin turbo 4 in the Tacoma, and they just haven't told us yet.

    I meet friends for a bike ride there on Tuesdays and whenever there are new models coming out they are a regular thing. Won't say what they are or even the brand, DUH, so I just look and take mental notes.

    does turning tires to black wall out count? How bout added snug top rebel.
    My best guess is he or she probably write for an auto magazine, I've known two people that wrote for auto magazines, and they always had a new vehicle outside their house with Michigan plates.

    I'd give up my Tacoma if that was ever possible..... Ahhh I can dream though or get a late 80s or early 90s Toyota PU with 22RE and turbo that sucker :laugh: Hard to find the 22RTE though, such a rare gem though :(

    Kinda' cool they are driving them up into RMNP. I'll have to keep an eye out for them. I live in FtC.

    By the way Ostrichsak -- I was checking out your truck. Sweet screaming Jesus you have a nice setup.

    Those couldve been the new RX350, coincidentally they with have a DI 3.5L in them too. Claimed to be 300-ish HP.

    It blew past you? Well, it looks like the 7GR motor might not be so bad after all! =)

    I live in Cheyenne but I am in Colorado a lot. I see test mules going up I70 all the time. Also saw a new GMC Canyon on the interstate in Wyoming right after it was unveiled (but before it was released). Wonder what the point of putting camo on the Tacoma is if we know what it looks like already.

    I'm almost certain that it was the RX350. The redesigned RX was just shown, so it makes sense to test them together.
