    I'd honestly be in a B8.5 6-Speed Audi S4 or a B5 S4 6-Speed.

    I used to own a 5 speed '97 A4 Quattro and a '00 A6 2.7 twin turbo 6 speed Quattro and a shit 2016 Jetta. I modified the A4 for performance, the A6 was a beast in its own.

    I always have been a massive Audi fanboy, but I needed utility and reliability over performance so I ended up with my Tacoma and I love it. After I'm done with school, I'll be in another Audi for sure. But the Tacoma isn't going anywhere.

    How about y'all?

    F150 no doubt. Over priced and don't hold resale in my opinion.

    If I didn't need a truck and had the money I'd go Audi S5 without question.

    A Shelby mustang GT but since I live in an area with snowy winters it isn't practical in the winter/late fall months as a daily driver.

    I will buy one when I'm in my 50s when I am having my midlife crisis and probably still have my Tacoma sitting right next to it if it's still running strong.

    I would be in a new Nissan Titan. I love the new design, and the new 5.6 V8 seems to be a great engine. Also, the Titan comes with a 10 year, 100k warranty.

    During all of this termoil after a Toyota dealership ruined my Tacoma, lawsuit, etc, I actually have thought alot about this lately. If I had to replace my Tacoma with something other than a Tacoma it would be a Trail Team Ed. FJ.

    Now, if I could pick anything to be my daily driver... BMW X6 M

    :)

    LOL! Wish you lived in LA! I got a 2011 F150 a little over a year ago and absolutely hate it! I'd give you a good deal, lol!
