Totally agree. I was really close to getting a Cavalry Blue Tundra. Almost all the TRD colors are great. 

I’d like to see a Camry or RAV4, but instead of colors make it white, silver, beige, and gray. Shoot, you can even throw in black if you want.

Own one, can confirm. I’m 5'9" and sit way back, my teenagers fit fine in the back seat and while my friends WON’T ride in the back, they totally could. That has more to do with ingress/egress and the fact that I also own a crew cab truck they much prefer.

Drove my friend’s once to take her to the airport. Worst car I’ve driven, and I’ve driven 100s. 

Around 20 years ago I was at Zion National Park and a dozen or so Panteras came driving through.  Both the sight and the sound were glorious. 

I love both of these cars. My best friend in HS had a modded 16V Scirocco and it was a brilliant car for the time/money. Would definitely have one in my collection. Almost bought a Corrado numerous times. The VR6 is fantastic.

No lie - that’s the word I missed in my 6th grade school spelling bee.

I’ve ridden the current Maglev train in Shanghai. It’s a pretty cool experience (especially when the two trains pass each other) but it’s basically an amusement park ride. After they built the small first section, they decided it was prohibitively expensive and stopped expanding and now it’s just a tourist attraction.

I was really hoping for suicide doors like the concept. Even so, this has potential.

I don’t remember seeing any Fords in China (there may have been a few), but I saw a crap-ton of Buicks.

Neutral: I love my wife at least that much and probably more, but she absolutely won’t tolerate that much buffing and waxing.

I drive a Ram right now. Everybody refers to it as a Dodge anyway.

You were a much better friend than my friends and I were. We had one friend with an old Impala like your friend’s Dart that we would “borrow” for lunch. But instead of putting gas in it like good people, we would always park it somewhere different for our own entertainment. At least we would drive him to where it was

I honestly spend almost no time worrying about my cars being stolen. I always lock them, but also park my convertible with the top down if I’m going be less than 30 minutes or so. I do make sure I don’t leave valuables in plain sight. I have more cars than garage so we park a couple outside, but nobody has ever messed

I’ve looked at Leasetrader and Swapalease in this situation.  Takeover the end of someone else’s lease just to get you through.  I’ve actually considered doing it all the time just so I can try a lot of different cars, but inventory is too low in my area.  If I were in SoCal or the NE, I might go for it.

Good point. More likely to snag a nipple on my truck. 

You’d have to put a lot of value on the stripes to make this NP. There are much nicer ones out there for a few thousand more, and there are slightly worse ones for thousands less. I like the stripes, and I like old trucks, but this is too much.

I put popup tie-down rings in the top of the rails on my bed. Better than external tie-downs because you won’t rub the paint, and nothing to catch your pants/belly-button on when you’re loading from the side.

Thanks - good feedback. May have to spring for a Prada or just get the van.

Headed to Costa Rica in a couple of months and probably going to rent a Fortuner. Good choice? I’d rather have a Prado, but I think it’s twice as much.
