    A very good use of that would be in the winter to bump up the rpm's, most diesel's will go cold idling in cold temps or not come up to temp.

    Looks good! I'm genuinely surprised they didn't wimp out somehow.

    With the way gas prices are headed, keep all three. 4Runner for trips, Taco for carrying everything, Yaris so you can afford the $10/gal gas that’s on the way.

    upon further reflection, huge garage, 100’+ in vehicles, nice house! You’re freaking rich! What are you, a plumber?

    Im strongly considering one. My previous daily before buying a tow pig was a Mazdaspeed 3 and this definitely would be a fun upgrade with AWD

    So. Many. Stickers.
    Standard on American dump trucks :anonymous:

    You can also mimic this with older cruise controls that were based on setting the engine RPM and not actual speed.

    A.... A caravan? Get out!

    Not standard on dump trucks and older CC would not work before computer controled diesels.

    I’m fairly certain if you could get the old school livery as an option, people would buy it

    It’s actually one of the easiest manual transmissions. My 21 shifts like butter and it’s hard to stall it. Has hill assist so it will just sit there for 3 seconds on a hill.
    My wife never drove manual and drove it around a parking lot.
    Everyone should drive manual once in their life.
    Nothing better than launching a 5.0 notchback down a highway entrance ramp and chirping the tires in 3rd gear!

    I like the white Wind Chill paint but I’m just not a fan of chrome. (This one is a Limited) The interior seems way updated compared to last gen. In my opinion that silver surround on the front just needs to go. I’m sure aftermarket parts will be available to change it out. I would Definitely want to get a aftermarket front bumper.

    I had a 93 notch 5 speed I used to drag race. 331 stroker on a 100hp shot of NO2, Tremec TKO 5 speed, 4.10 gears. That was a long time ago it seems, I miss that car.
