    Wow... didn't see that coming. Why? Your Taco was pretty nice with all the bells and whistles.

    I honestly can't explain why I did... I can say that the build quality is not near the same as the Taco, but I have to admit... It's so much more fun to drive!

    I figure I'll drive it until the first time it leaves me sitting on the side of the road out of warranty, then I'll be trading it in for another Taco.

    I guess with 37s it's probably a little starved for power huh? I know the only thing I'm interested in for mine is better MPGs!

    That would probably be one of two reasons I ditch my Tacoma for: better towing or better mileage. It would depend if I started driving more for work though. I would either upgrade to a 3/4 ton diesel or fix up my old truck and get a diesel car.

    I'm getting 16 mpg right now, so obviously I don't care too much about mileage. I'm just looking for better towing, and comfort. I beat up my Taco too many times on the trails, and retired it too late. I'll probably wait until next year, and pick a tow rig up.

    I could see how he would need a LS1... I think I'm sticking to the 3.73s and close to stock tires. It cruses comfortably at 70. The 3.6L Pentastar they are putting in the 2013s, besides being a POS in my opinion, gives the wranglers the power they've needed for a long time.

    Why not? You could ditch the diesel and 4Kinda-Runner and get a sweet Yeep for all that money.

    I think that narrowed it down to about 5 jeeps... There were a lot out there today. That's cool though that your mother off roads too.
