    I used drive a 17 f350 DCLB 4x4 around Houston for a carpentry shop. I loved that truck. Was a beast in the highway and kinda fun being oversized for downtown and being a defensive driver lmao

    Not really a fan of any half tons across all manufactures, i like how the dodge 3/4 tons look and love the cummins sound but as a package i'd pass... more partial to ford 2fiddys and the 6.7

    They're all hideous. But it's a Cummins wrapped in a non Dodge. Win.

    there's a maroon one at my plant that's got like a 12 inch lift or some shit and steel bumpers... it's actually kinda decent looking :laugh:
    I'm not a fan or the height or the color, but I can see the potential. A nice 4 inch lift and some decent wheels and tires on a normal color would go a long way.

    Picking a truck to replace my Tacoma is extra hard since I don't really want to replace it...

    For sure sticking with a truck or would a 4runner fit the bill?

    First gen tundra DC. Make it an 05 or 06 for the vvti. More power plus a 5 speed auto for better mpgs. You're welcome.

    Will be keeping it for truck duties. The GX would be the bone stock DD for a couple years til it transitions to the full time off roader

    What happened to the abandoned Ford on your land? Shouldn't be hard to take legal possession.

    Isn't the 4runner backseat the same size as a Tacoma's?

    You can get a 3rd row in a 4Runner.


    It’s useless. But it is an option.

    My 4runner backseat is pretty roomy. Get it without a sunroof and you have more headroom.
