I looked on their site ... they don't have one that fits a Tacoma.

I put together a dossier on the previous owner of my truck, based on odds and ends the dealershit forgot to remove from the glove compartment.

He's 77 years old, listens to Neil Diamond, likes dogs and cats, and got dumped by his insurance company after they paid out $750 to fix the front bumper a couple of years ago. He may also have a heart condition. As far as I can tell, he isn't dead.

That may explain why a four year old truck only has about 24,000 miles on it.

I think there is a video of the truck and its previous owner on the GTOger channel.

Maybe it is a video of the current owner... he is known to visit web hosting parking lots.

One of the great events in motorsports is about to start - the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Too bad it's in France.

I just took my truck to get a wash and oil change.

What they saw ... an Italian-looking guy with a pickup truck dirty with yard waste and a few garden tools sitting in the bed.

They took VERY good care of me. I'm not saying they thought I was a landscape contractor, but ... actually yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.

The loaded gunracks helped too I'm sure.

My people do not put guns on display. And besides, they'd get wet in the car wash.

I don't remember in which room we were talking about electric cars.  The electric car of the 70s

While traveling last week I rented a car. The rental place asked me if I would like to drive "a small SUV" and I said sure, why not. The vehicle I ended up with was a Hyundai Tucson.

WTF? This little tin can was anything but an SUV. It's the same size as a Chevette from the 1970's, but the Chevette seems to have had a much larger engine. When I wanted to accelerate, I'd put my foot to the floor and the engine would roar, and the vehicle would slowly start moving.

Calling a vehicle an SUV doesn't make it one.

Did you assume your car's vehicle class?  If it identifies itself as an SUV you should treat it as one.

It is a CSUV, Compact Sports Utility Vehicle.  It is similar to an SUV without all the things you would need in an SUV.

That's how I describe the Toyota Rav 4.. Total tin can with nothing going for it.

Damned if I know why the only two engine choices are a 2.0L at 164hp and a 1.6L turbo at 175hp. These barely differ. An engine that small will always sound labored when you ask for moderate acceleration.

At least is't better than a base Subaru Crosstrek. (I'm so done with Subarus.)

Then just go buy the damn Prius already. If you're going to buy an SUV, buy one that has some heft and power. Better yet, join the pickup truck club.
I'm glad I did :)

When I see a "crossover" I think "enough with this crap, everyone knows that what the world really wants is to have station wagons again".

My "station wagon" can carry 7 quite comfortably and even some cargo on top of that. I'm quite happy with it. The back seat is much more comfortable than the pseudo back seat in my dad's wagon when I was 7 or 8.

Does it have third row seating? That can be handy. On the other hand that sounds suspiciously like a minivan.

IT does have third row seating. And is not a minivan.
