    I'd say you have the best looking midsize truck. Enjoy! :thumbsup:

    I drive a Miata.
    I dig the new truck.

    I'm in the same boat, I'm about to quadruple my commute next month. :anonymous:


    I'm thinking that I might garage the Tacoma instead of replacing it. I couldn't help but notice a shitload of good looking 10 year old Cooper S MTs in my area for under 5k. I might do something stupid this weekend.

    Handsome truck.

    I think they sell kits that’ll cover the amber fender lights, in case that’s not your thing.

    Good luck.

    Yeah my tacos MPG suck above 60 so I usually don’t go much faster.

    I live in a small city so I don’t do much highway driving. Its not an issue for me at all.

    Aren’t those coppers super unreliable? From what I heard anyway.

    But hey, you will get to drive a manual then :)

    Well here's the thing, the AT4 suspension rides like a truck. I wouldn't say the ride is as gentle over the bumpy roads as the TRD Off Road. The remote start is super easy to operate and the truck stays running after opening the door. The seats and interior are super nice. There is no Sport Mode, no EST power mode, Ya want to go fast Ya just press the accelerator. I was surprised how much noise the 2.7 turbo makes. It's not a bad sound at all but yeah you know it's there for sure when you step on the gas. Problem is my wife really likes the truck and loves driving it. LOL, I guess its not all bad since she will be more likely to volunteer for driving my drunk ass home. The new is still on it so we shall find out as it breaks in.

    That’s great man.

    Sounds like it’s a keeper! Happy wife happy life :) Would love for my wife to drive my drunk ass home, she doesn’t even drive… I did buy her an E scooter though, that’s her mode of transportation.

    This and that
    +1 for the ghia and the cooper. I just saw my neighbor pulling up in a cooper the other day, I was thinking I bet those are fun little cars.
