    I like how reliable it is, and how fuel efficient is along with many other things, but what i love the most is how chicks dig it.

    The favorite things about my truck are the size of it! Perfect for tight trails and easy to park
    I love that the 4wd is a stick and not a push button or turn knob (no offense 2nd gen owners) but I have been in trucks not Yotas but other trucks that when you push the button to get it in 4wd drive you have to stop put it in nuetral wait 30 mins it pops real loud you back up exactly 36.78 feet you then push the brake twice and finally your in 4wd

    And it being paid off and still hold an awesome resale value is nice!

    I love that my truck is 11 years old and still looks almost new and never had any major problems. I expect to say the same thing 11 years from now!

    Reliability. But it is only "human", as I am in the middle of a number of big repairs right now. It's also way more fun to drive than the big box trucks, and it looks better too, even at ten years old.

    There are so many things I love about this truck but if I had to chose only one it would be its engineering pedigree.

    I am always amazed at how, after a long day out on the the most dificullt and challenging trails around, going 1-2 mph up and down steep inclines, through dirt and rocks annd mud, I can simply move a lever and cruise along 75 mph down the freeway and not miss a beat. Marvelous.
