This is true, but I agree as well that I’d rather not have a Lexus. Honestly, I have a 2013 Limited runner, that that thing is awesome.

Not all of the 4runner trims have that scoop... and y’know, we don’t have the Prado, soooo...

Personally I’m not a fan of the scoop at all. It’s dumb.

Interesting how in the 4x4 “toys” category, the truck that is more toy is beating the truck that is less toy. Actually, more interesting is how much the Wrangler isn’t beating the 4runner by, considering the amount of real world competition the 4runner has.

But do they work?

I keep on seeing people mention the FJC as a wrangler competitor, and how it ultimately failed at that. I get that point of view. Here’s the thing though, I feel the FJC really ended up competing with the Xterra and its nicer sibling the 4runner... and the 4runner ate its lunch. You’re talking about 2 trucks with a…

Nahh, the hype is real on this. It’s going to sell well.

I really want to have a beer with this guy.

Around the world, maybe.

Yay! Content!

Also, yes, compact adventure is absolutely where it’s at right now in bikes. These are bikes that can truly do most anything you ask of them well. Big Fan.

Any of the Zojirushi Fuzzy logic rice cookers are the answer. I don’t remember the model of mine off the top of my head (I’ve had it for years), but it even has a cake setting... and yes, it works amazing.

Go ahead and play it just for the music if nothing else.

Yeah, who knows. Some of the writers left and weren’t really replaced, but were the pastures greener or just more stable? It’s moot now. I just want Lanesplitter to be something worthwhile, mostly because I like Jalopnik.
