    More than I can afford
    A more subtle looking version of the (now discontinued) X-Runner. Lower profile body kit, available in any color Toyota currently offers.

    Stuff the IS-F V8 in it and a 6 speed manual that you can actually shift. Factory big brake kit, rear discs, coilovers in front.

    My perfect truck?

    MGM, DCSB, manual-transmission, 4x4, diesel.

    So, basically, the truck I have now with the Land Cruiser (70 series, not the wuss one we get in the US) 1HD-FTE under the hood.

    Oh, and make 6th gear a true overdrive while you're at it.

    It's pretty simple to disable or put on a switch. Not sure if its legal or not.

    More HP. Maybe at least 260-280. I'm perfectly happy with the way it is now, I just think since it's 4.0l it should have a bit more power.

    Yeah, I agree with that completely... We're the weakest v6 around right now. The frontier is at 261 I think.
