Hello. Can you post any other pics? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions though, no Runners & no Tundras. For a "City Beast" I love that the 62 & the 80 are not huge, (both under 16 feet even with larger bumpers). A Tundra is just too big. I actually considerd a 1997-2001 Cherokee Classic (a little small at only 167 inches long) w/ BMW M...
