    I was referencing titan next to the F150, Ram, and GM twins.

    Tacoma and Titan compete in two separate segments

    All manufacturers are heading to the shared platform. VW/Audi have been doing this with the MQB since 2014 in EU and 2015 in NA.
    It's a great thing, and all vehicles seem to benefit significantly.

    Gonna laugh when I see all the random mutant creations that will inevitably happen when people will try to mix and match shit.

    There was a guy on here saying a bunch of what appeared to be insider information. He said the new Truck platform would be called TNGA-F. Looks he wasn't lying?

    There may be something to the rumor about ending Mexico (Toyota de Baja California) production where our double cab Tacos come from (the best tacos are made in Mexico, lol)? If there is a 25% tax added on vehicles made in Mexico (should Mexico not do more to halt the border crossings on its south), this would be plausible.

    Here are photos I took of the Tacoma factory in Baja, driving by back in 2010. It is on Hwy. 2 between Tijuana and Tecate...
