    It's sure not a bad thing; kinda like the term VDub verses VW. So it's all good.

    If production is even moved to Mexico or similar, I'm sure the word "Taco," as a positive or fun nickname for the Tacoma, would very quickly disappear. At that point, any use of that would likely have negative connotations instead.

    Haaaa. Practicality? I moved everything I own out of my house twice with that truck when I moved. It holds my dog, my guns, 4 wheelers, holds it all. Sure I can't go plowing through a mudhole, but I had my fun with that with my old tacoma

    Good grief. Took you long enough, Jason. I was beginning to wonder if any X-Runner owner would ever respond to his obvious provocation. Now, where's my popcorn for the pending entertainment.

    Moved everything out of your house? In NM is that an adobe? Just messing with you.
    I just don't understand why people would want a truck that sits low, isn't that what cars are for? To each his own I guess.

    Wow that is one nice looking white Taco
    As some one has already said a Tacoma is a Tacoma, you love your X-runner and I love my Off-Road Taco. Sorry for sounding like a douche.
