    This is true I suppose. I forgot people these days have to have everything under the damn sun handed to them and explained to them. My mistake, carry on.

    I love my 2016 tacoma! It is way smaller than the F-150 while I park next to it(red too) at academy outdoors. The ABS is quick, stop me from running red light(red light cam), not turque steer. No torque steer during hard accerletation.
    - easy to ride and comfortable, easy get in and out
    - ground clearance is 10 inches
    - ample storage space
    - look awsome,
    - safer
    - the only that negative is mpg
    I have a six speed crz, it fun, but the tacoma is also fun just a different. And I have 4 cyl auto.
    I think about my tacoma everyday at work and cant wait to go home and drive it. it like a kid who cant wait to go home to play video game.LOL! I dont feel your disappointment.

    He lost any love he was gonna get when he stated "loved my Yaris". Sounds like he meant to buy a Prius but they slipped him a Mickie and gave him a Taco!

    For those that have experienced clutch slippage....what are some signs to look out for?

    As for the size, I wonder if he just got caught up in the moment of the car buying experience. Sometimes you just don't think straight. I always go in with a ton of research...impulse buys are risky if that was what this was.

    I think your trying to ask for those that HAVE experienced slippage. If that's the case, it's really easy to tell if you have clutch slippage, you step on the gas but don't go anywhere.

    Oh, BOO to you. I'm not sure the OP even wanted serious or productive input. "Cheer me up?" I don't think so...not on an Internet forum.

    I would enduldge a little more, but the mods definatley are not playing around this week. I'm not looking for any part of the ban hammer. At least four on break from the fiasco on Monday....and maybe some on this thread. If they delete your posts I wish you the best that they are in a good mood. I've had two deleted posts this week and I'm sure the third won't be a charm.

    I never said who the troll was...but I smells one. Somewhere.

    They're lurking in the shadows, probably under a bridge.
