Fixed it for ya...


I know the imports can make a decent vehicle. Just waiting for any of 'em to make a REAL pickup (ie diesel 3/4 or 1 ton)...

Toyota I think is coming out with their Diesel next year or 2010... I believe it'll be in 3/4 or 1 ton.

honda I believe is a LONG way away from that...

the problem though is toyota will build the truck but compared to the Domestics it'll be more expensive up front. not many people will buy it because of that. Toyota needs to bring back the quality BASE line trucks like they built their name on.

IE MY TRUCK... fucker doesn't have power anything... ok... it has power steering... but a rubber mat for a floor covering. manual windows... no A/C... 5 speed... but 1 ton rated axles... fully boxed frame... a motor that'll run 250,000 miles easy if you maintain it, and 150,000 easy if you don't.

Let's see... I don't tow anything... I don't plow anything... I don't off-road anything... Why would I need a 1 ton?

Because in America you ain't cool unless you have 5X more vehicle than you need.

Reminds me of VW steel in the late 70's/early 80's
