And, I don't know how many of you are familiar with the famous pic of Len Dawson during halftime of the 1967 NFL Championship Game (now known as the Superbowl):

I've been looking for my next vehicle purchase. I think a 4runner TRD Pro is at the top of my list. I really liked what I saw at the LA Auto Show. The ability to roll down the rear windshield makes it useable for picking up lumber at Home Depot (I'm renovating my house), so I won't actually need a pick up truck. Buuuut, then there's always the prospect of a 1st Gen Raptor and the new Ranger Raptor. 1st Gen Raptors are holding their value extremely well, and my daily commute is roughly 8 miles each way, so fuel economy isn't a high priority for me. The photos I've seen of the Ranger Raptor in Australia and South America make it very appealing, and it's smaller size may make it more manageable to drive in DTLA if needed. And since now pick up trucks are an option, I can't rule out a Tacoma or Tundra. I had 16 4Runner as a rental car for a few weeks on a business trip, and really liked it. It was comfortable, but definitely lacking 2018 model tech. (No apple play)

Also at one point, I had 4 coworkers with new Dodge Ram 2500s. I'm not sure what trim package they have, but dang. The interior on these new trucks are really nice. Not sure if Fiat designed them, but they've come a long way from what I remember them looking like. It does peak my interest..

Yep; I've heard nothing but good things. Helped a friend do some work on his; if I remember correctly, nearly all the oem replacement parts he ordered had made in USA on it. A Japanese truck is the most American truck you can buy in 2018. :lol:


How's the frame holding up on icy roads? Do you use a Fluid Film or any other coatings?
