    Same here, I am 99.9% on highway and thinking to myself why not be more comfortable. Coming from a Rivian with hands free driving, it is going to be hard to go backwards. Also, the amount of storage space I had was incredible, with the new Tacoma Pro I even lost underneath the back seats which is now a battery.

    I am just not a huge fan of GMC gray's, and also not a chrome fan. The Denali has a ton of Chrome. I was looking at the AT4 and AT4x which will gain the look, but then again losing the hands free driving and benefits of a highway truck.

    Decisions...Decisions...

    Overpriced, foreign made, garbage! What a hot mess.

    Will most likely never buy the 4th gen

    Curious what your 16's vin number starts with. Are you saying lots of the 3g's are also "foreign made, garbage" as well?

    It's funny how quickly people have forgotten rotted frames, terrible interior plastic that's just as bad, an engine and transmission that hated each other, and unrealistically regularly achievable torque due to RPM requirements from the previous generations.

    Consumer: "We need more usable torque!!"
    Toyota: Here, have peak torque at 1700rpm with a torque plateau through the rev range in an over-engineered turbo I4...
    Consumer: "But...but...4 BANGER - you can't take my V6!!!! I'm going to the Canyon which has...a...4 banger!!!"

    Consumer: "Can we get a fully boxed frame already??"
    Toyota: Here, fully boxed frame...
    Consumer: "It's heavy!!!!"

    Consumer: "Drum brakes still??"
    Toyota: Here, 4 wheel disc brakes now with improved ventilation...
    Consumer: (Haven't seen a complaint here)

    Consumer: "Leaf springs suck!!"
    Toyota: Here, coil springs in the rear for ya...
    Consumer: "It's got no payload!!!!"

    Consumer: "Infotainment systems are embarrassingly bad!!!"
    Toyota: Here, 14inch touch screen, best in class...
    Consumer: "It's TOO BIG!!!!!"

    Consumer: "It's cheap and quality is gone!!!"
    Toyota: Here, we made the wheel wells bigger, and if you want bigger tires, you don't have to cut metal. We improved the driving seating position and the seats are more comfortable. Truck has a little bit wider stance on some trims. We still offer MT. Ventilated seats an option. Disconnect your sway bar in the front if you wish on some trims.
    Consumer: "NO FRONT LOCKER! PLASTIC! CHEAP! IT SHOULD HAVE A SMALL BLOCK V8!!!

    Consumer: "They're so expensive!!!"
    Toyota: Don't hate the player, hate the game...

    I live in MD just outside of Wash, DC. I've seen as many 4 Gens on the road as I have Cybertrucks....1.

    Truly frightening how some people get all their "news" from YT.
    Any swinging dick can pull off the road next to a dealership lot, take a selfie next to a row of trucks and then start rambling through their arm-chair economist theories.

    "But it must be happening because YT keeps putting all these videos in my feed"

    Good lord..

    Not just some dude who pulled off on the side of the road. Do a bit more research on who Ben is before you make stupid comments. Untamed now sure. Ben was a dealer for a bit, etc. He actually does research too, not just speculating like untamed and some others.

    I’m in Texas and I see at least a couple Cybertrucks every week. I’ve seen four or five 4th Gens that I’m aware of. Honestly, as much as people bitch about the looks of them, when one goes by in the opposite direction on the highway they look a hell of a lot like a 3rd Gen. It usually takes a glance in the mirror to see the distinctive tailgate shape for me to recognize one.

    Based on his comments his opinion isn't really valid, Ben isn't some guy who pulled off the side of the road to do a video on a truck lot, easy to make baseless comments. But yes he is entitled to his opinion and never said he had to agree, just correcting his statement.

    Have yet to see a 4th gen in the wild. I saw a Maverick the other day, so that can only mean it's more popular, right?

    Well the Chest Thumpers need some place to vent. "I'm getting a Frontier because it has a V6 and made in AMERICA"!
    I've read the posts. Remember, these people walk amongst us.

    Saw my 2nd in the wild yesterday, but it got me thinking. I have only seen 4 new colorado/canyons in the wild not including the one in my neighborhood. And those have been out for a year and a half.
