    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    You spent 13,500 for a tacoma new in 2000, drove it for 24 years and sold it for 14,000...it happens. I get it, the inflation dollar matrix etc. I'm pretty sure you would feel much better about getting back all the money that you put in, than the guy that did the same thing and was paid $500...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    Well, here are 401 over 200K listed on auto trader, some of them priced more or close to new cost. I would say these owners did ok with resale. Vehicles are depreciating assets, reducing your depreciation risk is smart to factor in the actual cost of ownership...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    There are Tacomas with over 300K on them that are selling for more than they were new....I wouldn't be so sure of that over 300K scrap metal thing.....In that case, the owner got the vehicle for free.... IMO resale on things should be an important factor in what you choose to buy. ...The real...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    They are more than likely just gonna put a top on a Tacoma and price it similar for the new 4 runner. Same powertrain, same general look, same general function etc. Just like the good old days.

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    What if the 4 runner is smaller more nimble and more rock crawler rather than overland focused, for less...that would make sense....getting rid of the Sequoia in a few years would also make sense. With this LC priced where it is, and the Sequoia priced where it is combined with the pitiful...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    Yeah, I am very interested to look at this one a little closer. I wonder if this will push 200 series prices down. I'm guessing if the price point holds, once they are out there it might get really hard to sell a 200 for 80K...lol

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    The new LC is not that much different in size than the 200 Series it replaced. Compared with its predecessor, the new LC is 1.2 inches shorter at 193.7 inches long, but the two have an identical 111.2-inch wheelbase. Both versions are also 78 inches wide, but the new one is just under an...

    INEOS Grenadier

    What part of the bed functionality is concerning, its a bigger bed than all the other mid size offerings, and has room/slots for 2 spares as well as a 4ft pallet between the wheel wells. Most midsize trucks don't have room for a pallet to lay flat between the wheel wells, much less a sheet of...

    New Tacoma vs Colorado vs Ranger

    Possibly, but there is a video floating around with the tacoma engineer saying the trail hunter will have the highest payload as well.

    The Tacomas will be made in Mexico, they built 2 factories to build them there.

    New Tacoma vs Colorado vs Ranger

    I shared that because it is normally the assumption (most of the time correct) that the highest payload will be available on the lowest trim on trucks. This was the case with Tacoma up till now.

    New Tacoma vs Colorado vs Ranger

    The 1700 lb payload rating for the 2024 Tacoma is not based on the base trim, the only trim they noted with 1700lbs attached to it is with the I force max, not the bottom spec..... " From Edmunds Article" " But as Toyota taketh, it also giveth. The 2024 Tacoma's max payload increases from...

    Who's building the best 3/4 Ton/ 1 Ton Gas Truck these days!

    Thats kinda where I am at, I currently only buy Toyotas, I probably lean a little towards the Ram since I have owned one before and the interiors are comfy even on the lower trims but I wanted to see if I was missing something on the reliability front. I may have to just discard the truck...

    Who's building the best 3/4 Ton/ 1 Ton Gas Truck these days!

    Yeah Diesel is out for me no matter how many miles, not dealing with the diesel repairs and loss of payload. 50K would be a pretty busy travel year, 20K is more normal, I mean a trip to Alaska and back and you are over halfway there, couple of trips to the Keys and a couple of trips up the...

    Who's building the best 3/4 Ton/ 1 Ton Gas Truck these days!

    True but it it is nice to have info about all 3 brands to be made aware of any ongoing or new issues with powertrains that pop up, like the current issues with the Ford 7.3 as mentioned above etc.
