    Shoot. I just drove the Sienna to Grand Junction for the races last weekend.

    Took the seats out, towed the trailer with three bikes on it, slept in the back at the track and averaged 25mpg for the trip :thumbsup:

    So I'm on a dirt biking trip in Moab and saw some epic FJ Cruiser near disaster action. Not sure if they were rentals. This was on Kane Creek trail and my buddy asked "did you guys air down?"...

    They replied "uh... wut?"

    Guess that was a no. Luckily they only took a few dents on the door.

    Reminds me of last year.

    I was just finishing up Elephant Hill. Going back down the first main hill. Keep in mind this is pretty late in the afternoon after we had taken several hours to do the entire trail. There's a guy in a bone stock late 90s F150 trying to make it up with his wife spotting. I'm honestly amazed he got it past the first ledge.

    I asked him the same thing, what did you air down to? He had no idea what I was asking him. After a little talking, to the relief of his wife, we got him to turn around.

    personally i say go for the tundy. but i may be slightly biased towards trucks lol. my own personal experience if you care to hear it. i got rid of my 2010 tacoma for a 2010 evo x. absolutly loved the evo, but after about 6 months, i found myself slightly depressed about the fact that i couldnt go do any of my outdoor hobbies in a car. it just couldnt physically go where i needed it to go. got back in a 2014 dcsb tacoma and i couldnt be happier. going from a truck to a car, when youre used to a truck, just doesnt feel right. just some food for thought brother.

    Lexus is more family friendly...which is your reason for researching the Lexus to begin with.

    I'd go with Lexus, you still have the Jeep

    Nope

    Actually, it was a coincidence ....the Lexus was just brought in from a lease.....Lexus is nice, and quick, but I cant take it through hills, mob through large piles of snow, camping, etc.....

    Jeep is a Jeep....too slow for my taste...thats why Carm has it lol

    I think the Lexus may be out for now....it prob makes more practical sense not to have it...
