up date Well, to those that mentioned the lack of smarts of using a brand new truck for the missions I mentioned, you are so right. One week into its life with us I managed to back into a fence post. The truck now has a dent and a scrape on the back hatch.. Long suffering GF said she was...

see this thread The dieimma of purchasing a new Toyota I just did this from start to finish. If you have a wife or a long suffering girl friend you will get a 4 runner. If you have a dog you should get a 4 runner. Dogs love that back window in the 4 runner and so will your wife/gf. The...

up date thanks for all the comments. This is how this shook out, at least for now. Not too long after I let this thread die, the long suffering girl friend had a freak accadent in her Accura MDX. She is ok but the car was totaled. Front control arm broke in half and she lost control, ended...

It also helps if one leg is longer than the other.

im sure there is a bump for the crew cab. Still the crew cab is less than a tocama crew cab. Funny on the F150 you are sitting up a little higher in relation to the hood so the truck doesnt seem as big as it is. The Tacoma you are sitting low and the hood feels tall, makes the truck seem...

Chukar are a freaking workout. As hard as it gets.

drove the 2015 Ford F150. I can see why they sell so well or so many. I tried out the 2.7 eco. I didn't get a chance to take it up any grades or off road or anything but its nice on the highway. I'm not finding them around here for sub $30K in crew cab, they seem to be around at $34-$36K. I...

No decision yet. Off to drive a F150 today. Drove the Silverado yesterday. The Silverado did not have a snorkel but maybe the F150 will. Didn't see one on the options list. :snorkel:

the MDX is a nice car, good power, smooth, refined drive, reliable as hell, I can see why it checks all the boxes for her. She has never driven or even been in a 4Runner, so that is an open question. I don’t want to lean on her to get one if it doesn’t serve her purposes, or speak to her in...

If I was doing it today I think I would go for the 4Runner Trail Premium and an F150 with the 3.5. Or the Silverado, never been much of a Ford guy. That Ford does have a lot to offer I think. As someone mentioned, I am going to take a day off next week and drive them all back to back and...

I was never really considering diesel regardless of what it's strapped to. The Chevy Colorado was in the hunt as a possibility, but with the Colorado and the Tacoma so close in price and really the Colorado, may be a thousand or so more why take the risk. The Taco has more than accounted for...

Now that is a rig and then some. Me likey.

In Colorado, people are generally tolerant of others and I have never had an issue with anyone about hunting. Really more concerned about some bad guy helping himself to my stuff. That does happen, even in Colorado.

and a f 250 with a v8 oil burner, for just over 30K is really something. Now my head is exploding.

I have to admit a new 2015 Ford F 150 with the twin turbo for south of $30K does cause one pause. Lot of truck for the money.

thanks for the feedback gents, let me re trench a little bit. First, let’s skip the idea of the pull behind camper thing. The long suffering girlfriend got wind of that idea and put the brakes on it. She is under the impression that the cooking for me, and cleaning up after me, is some kind...

Gents, Long time lurker, first post. In the midst of a dilemma here. Long winded but stay with me. You guys love this stuff, you know you do. I am having a real problem deciding what truck to end up with, on top of that, what particular truck in the line or trim level, once I figure out...
