    I love my basic regular cab 5 speed 5 lugger. Currently has 60k miles on it. All stock, no mods. I currently also have three sports cars which are all very stiff. I often wonder if my 5 lugger is softer than it is supposed to be, or perhaps I am just used to adjustable coilovers?

    Two questions:
    1. Are the 5 luggers softer than other Tacomas? Seems like the front is really soft when going over speed bumps.
    2. Is there anyway to stiffen a 5 lugger without changing the ride height?
