    Wife needs car: Highlander vs. 4Runner vs Sequoia vs Landcruiser, rough differences info?

    The Land Cruiser doesn't have a 3rd row. Some of the 4 runner models have a 3rd row available

    Thoughts for an Overlander in today's market? Suggestions?

    Why not a 4 runner? it seems to fit the bill and budget with reliability to boot.

    Offroad capability of full size truck

    I would probably look for a 3/4 ton for the use and weight you describe. With the camper at 1500 lbs and the other mods give or take 400 extra lbs. Load gear 200 lbs, driver 150-200 lbs (guess) you are looking at around 2300 lbs or so. Sure the 1/2 ton could do it, but a 3/4 ton would do it...

    Is A Baby FJ Type Cruiser Really Headed To N.A.?

    The Rav is unibody, I would suspect the baby FJ would be body on frame, if it is not I agree.

    3rd Gen Tacoma for towing - manual vs. automatic?

    The only thing I would caution you about is the weight of your trailer and living in the Colorado mountains. It will do it, but you will feel like you are wringing the trucks neck all the time (even not towing on a steep pass) The 3.5 makes its torque high up in the rev range and it sounds...

    2024 F150

    I get the reason why, I am just curious how it will play out on the different packages, for example if the current package has 1800 lb payload what will identical package on the 2024 be reduced by etc. Bummer that they don't do the HD payload package anymore, although I would imagine they...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    Yeah, I'm sure they are taking care of the warranty on the engines , I would like to see them figure out the cause and come up with a solution before I would have confidence with a purchase. The only reason I care, is that I was in the market for a new 1/2 ton and the Tundra was at the top of...

    The Toyota Land Cruiser Is Coming Back To America

    The Turbo issues are so 2022...they have a failing engine issue when the trucks are getting 20k plus on them. They still have not figured out the cause, or if it was a certain batch of parts etc, so IMO everything is a potential ticking timebomb until they narrow down the cause and batch etc...
