Nice truck. (from a totally unbiased perspective) I see a driver's grab handle in your future. I don't know why they stopped installing them, but it was a great addition to ours. I enjoyed the video, and I bought my truck for some of the same reasons. I wanted long term reliability with a...
Well I have a Hawk and we have two dogs (55 pound and 75 pound) and the front dinette model works perfectly for us. The dogs have more than enough room to sleep on the dinette bed. They stay there when we are sleeping, or in our bed wstchung a movie. If we need the dinette to eat at, then the...
I just retired my 2000 Astro Van (2wd) with close to 300K km on it. It finally needed some cylinder head work and just wasn't cost effective to repair anymore and I needed a newer van for work anyways. (I've given it to some friends who own a farm and it will continue to serve them for years to...
Did a little googling and it looks like that narrow gauge belongs to the landowner (or former landowner, who has (had) a thing for trains, and was looking to develop the area. Apparently their is (was ) a train in the tunnel there at one point a number of years ago...
My Sister has the Crewmax and yeah, their is a ton of room back there. I removed my back seat in my double cab ot make room for storage and for two dogs. I like the fact the full size truck has more room to raise the seat for more comfort for me. I found that the Tacoma (and Xterra) seats were...
That there, a couple of the main reasons I went from my beloved mid-size Xterra to the full-size Tundra. I can't comment on the seating or interior of other full size trucks (though I imagine them to be similar) but I love my Tundra seating. In the old Xterra with the smaller seats lower ot the...
Funny thing, it jumped 14 cents a litre yesterday. Seems totally random, like a bunch of oil exec's in their ivory tower in Calgary or Houston throwing darts a board. It is what it is....I try never to complain too much about it, we're pretty fortunate living here and being able to afford toys...
If you bought your Tacoma because your a Toyota guy, if you appreciate the pedigree and the proven reliability of the brand then just buy a Tundra and be done with it. I moved up from a well built Xterra (that I thought had tons of power) to a Tundra and have never looked back. I bought the...
Slow? Turn the tow/haul on, press the traction control button 3 times...and voila = beast mode. Maybe not fully loaded down, but unladen, in beast mode, my Tundra is, well...a beast. (now where's the two thumbs up emoji?)
I consider efficiency part of the bigger picture. Everyone is always so wrapped up in mileage, as if that is all that matters. My truck will "efficiently" get me anywhere....and if I choose not to travel up that long grade at a snails pace (behind all those folks in their little mid-size...
I have a 2014 Tundra, lifted with 34" tires and a Four Wheel Camper. We took a 3 week 8600km road trip to the Arctic (all the way to Tuk and back) and I averaged 12mpg over the whole trip. We had the camper loaded for bear given where we were going. I carried 14 gallons of extra fuel (yes, I...
I realize your looking for a hard sided camper, but if you do broaden your horizons you're welcome to come take a peek at our Four Wheel Camper. We're here in Penticton, which I believe is close to where you are located.
I'm all in with our Four Wheel Camper. the compactness and low overall...
Totally off topic here....maybe not so much as it;s taken a turn already, but my uncle was in the Flying Squad and I remember him telling tales of the regular plain old non-descript sedans they would modify by adding cement to the trunk and floors to keep them weighed down for better handling...
