    Looks good imo, any competition is good even if it's not directly competing vs the Tacoma.

    If it has decent powertrain and it's not too slow I would even consider one, would look badass with some meaty tires on it.

    All the criticism from TW(size, payload, bad space) is the same one that we get from full size truck owners lol

    Mods? We don't need no stinking mods.
    Yes, you can choose from a 12-pack of PBR or Yuengling or a 6-pack of a hazy sour Brett strawberry/basil farmhouse IPA.

    Ice cold can of PBR after mowing the lawn on a 90° 90% humidity summer day is heaven on earth and I'll fight over it. :duel:

    Yuengling is my lager of choice. I'll pass on the IPA though. More of a Belgian and barrel aged stout guy myself.

    I was at the liquor store Saturday, listening to the Hipster ask the Indain owner what he has for Juicy IPA, then they had a whole long bizarro conversation on it. It was so over the top I was looking for cameras since I thought I was on Impractical Jokers or something similar.

    Well, our favorite beers/beer styles don't seem to overlap. But I'd still hoist a few with you!

    My wife was dead set going to buy one based off of the prototype pictures and all...

    showed her the official pictures... looks like she’s holding out for the maverick or gonna end up with a ridgeline.

    At the risk of triggering someone, that thing is more ghey than a Ridgeline.

    PBR is very popular with the hipster doofus man bun crowd around these parts. It’s what they drink to attempt to give off the blue collar every man vibe. It’s a tough look to pull off when the legs of your skinny jeans are tucked into your alpaca socks.

    Hamms is the beer for the hipster that collects unemployment until someone pays him $20/hour because he wears a Misfits vest and thinks he knows how to fight.

    Sadly we can't use that knock on them any more. Hyundai makes a very reliable product. They copy other manufacturers in pretty much ever aspect of the business.

    How did I forget the 20-21 3rd gen TRD grills look like they are supplied by Hyundai.
