Because the current GX is the last V8 they put in passenger cars

Things to look for on the new GX please:

I help run an offroading event in Ouray Colorado each year, called the Rocky Mountain Toyota RoundUp (registration February 24th!).

1. Because the current GX is the last V8 they put in passenger cars. Everywhere else they use a V8, they’ve already switched to the 3.4L TTV6 in this new GX. Yes, it’s about their CAFE numbers.

Wonder where Roe v. Wade would be today had he done that.

A “lifetime bumper to bumper warranty” on a Wrangler? I have a hard time believing that the manufacturer would offer that. I assume this came from the dealership, probably with stringent maintenance / service requirements?

I have a 2018 built to offroad in Colorado and it is still all of these things. Had to go on a 600 mile road trip across Kansas in bad weather, took the 4Runner. Whenever I absolutely need to get somewhere, no matter the weather or terrain, it’s the one vehicle I know can handle whatever.

On this point, the idea that you’re going to take a modern transmission to a dealership and have them swap internals is laughable.  Most mechanics these days just read codes and swap parts.  And most of the time that works.

^^^ this.

The 3.0L Supra starts at $55K, the 3.0L Z4 starts at $66K and has many more options to go higher from there.

It’s like you guys have never seen a vehicle with street tires to get a good EPA rating before.  The tires that came on my 4Runner were a joke.  Then I upgraded them.

Is your recommendation that they ship the truck equipped with snow tires by default from the factory? Does any manufacturer do this?

I’d love the GTI if I could just get over the moody German dependability. I had an ‘02.5 Jetta 1.8T that was impressive for the price, but every “is anybody else having this problem” thread on VWVortex happened to my car and I just got tired of figuring out which were the good years (as opposed to Toyota/Honda where…

I’m not sure where the LC’s will bottom out but they’re still in the depreciation cycle, my ‘21 convertible with 7K miles traded back to the dealer at $78.5K and sold in the $83's. But that’s Denver in December. These cars under $60K start to become a crazy bargain.

The LC500 you see above represents 10 years of payments and good / lucky car decisions.

Dude. I had an FJ, I wrote the buy/sell guide on FJCruiserForums. Sold it to buy a 4Runner. Now I help run the big annual Toyota offroading event in Ouray CO. If you plan on offroading your 4Runner, you should definitely come out.

Wife is a Navy E7 and hates Mustangs for the same reason.  If Raptors were a bit cheaper the Army guys could buy them before E5 lol

They can afford to build their own Supra. We know they can make awesome, non-boring cars. The LC and LFA prove that.

Because sometimes you want to drive a nicer car than the airman who just made E3 but is still living in base housing.

1. The manufacturers really need to get the “markup games” in check or they’re going to piss off an entire generation of buyers. I paid cash two months ago for an LC500 and while I didn’t expect the process to be the CU volleyball team wearing togas feeding me grapes, it sure as hell didn’t need to be “go through this…
