    I wasn't a fan of the new 4Runner at first but it's grown on me. Now, saying that..........the new "face-lift" taco......EEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:


    What the hell are they thinking?! I hope they don't turn the thing into the many face-lift lives Ford gave the Ranger!! That was the same truck with revised lights, turn signals, grill, and some interior bits moved here and there. I'm very WORRIED!!!:(

    I hate to say this but the new Chevy Colorado raider truck.........GULP...........actually looks the best of the new breed of small/mid sized trucks!! OMG.........I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER LIKE A CHEVY.:mad::confused::(:eek:

    I agree, it dosen't look that different from the current model. So many people think it's the ugliest truck ever. it that was true, they wouldn't like their own trucks. I was hoping it wouldn't change too much because I like the 2nd gen look. It's a subtle change with more interior options that we cant see yet. I think it looks good. Still waiting for the official release with the details and specs on the inside.

    The Chevy Colorado is a Chevy Colorado. The "Raider" is a Mitsubishi (actually a Dodge Dakota, with an even uglier grille).


    The skewp was photoshopped onto that red access cab for David K's sake.

    I liked the 3rd pic, but being I just bought a 2011 2nd Generation, I really like what I have. I also owned a 2007 FJ and it was a good SUV but not what I needed. I would like to see this photo made up like and FJ as I believe it would be an even greater look for the FJ as that vehicle deffinitly needs a new look.

    I don't like the black one ... and whatever it looks like I hope Toyota doesn't follow Ford dodge and Chevy and adopt the stupid square looking body style.

    it will likely look more square for the next gen. Square is more American favourable.
