    We actually have a tC (wife's car) but we generally use that for back and forth to work. Now THAT is a pansy car.

    TC's are badass! My brother has a the dark blueish gray ones. I love driving that thing when he has to use my truck for something or whatever! I tried convincing the ol lady that we should trade her Jeep in for one but she wants her 4WD. They handle awesome in the snow though!

    It is fun to drive and gets decent city mpg, about 25. I just don't like sitting that low and I'm just used to trucks. My wife won't have to fight me for it.

    Honestly, it would be a waste. They aren't that fast even with the TRD SC and my wife would probably drive it into a ditch.

    They are already pretty damn fast, but with the SC they would be badass but it wouldnt be a super huge HP gain, or Torque

    I think it's only like 8 secs to 60. SC adds only like 40hp and maybe a second to 60. But, we didn't buy it for that anyway. Needed a second car and something economical.

    75 bags of landscape lava rock.. estimated 1300 lbs. And a 1400 lb round hay bale just after getting my spring TSB completed to see how she held up. Took both loads like a champ, but the 2 hour drive with the rock was taxing on the gas gauge.

    2 scoops of dirt. Each scoop is 3/4 ton. So 1.5 tons total, so 3000 lbs!!!

    I don't even have the TSB either. You have to be very careful braking with that much weight.

    1000lbs total. Sometimes we do dry ice blasting, kinda like sandblasting but the dry ice goes from a solid to a gas so there is no mess to clean up. Always fun with the left over to put it in a water bottle and make it go BEWM!
