I got 3 brand new TRD wheels and 2 lightly used for sale if anyone interested PM me. I am in Chicago.

Fully agree its subjective but I think Toyota has learned/advanced alot since the 200 came out. Toyota has been behind the curve on seat comfort and is finally catching up now in some vehicles is what I feel.

You can see the seating position is one of the main benefits of this vehicle. After Toyota destroyed my back they invented the car for enjoyable, fun driving experience. Only issue is its a bit slow.

I have never been a pickup guy even though I find them aesthetically appealing. Either SUV or van and either I am getting old or just tired of the extra heft when traveling so I am contemplating moving from SUV to compact CUV. Something that gets 50-100mpg. I prefer compact vans but not seeing...

I felt the same way until I sat inside a new UX300h last week. It felt like heaven, my body started to relax just sitting first few moments. My suspicion is Lexus has figured this out finally but selectively choosing where to put it. I don't know why they don't want to put it on their high...

I am starting to see the light and thinking about defenders. Want better highway manners after 200k miles on AT tires.

How was the ride of the Michelins, Ive been thinking to switch to 285/70/17 michelins. Ride is pretty stiff on my back after 8 years and 4 sets of KO2s.

I kept stock spring for comfort. I did upgrade both front and rears with Icon coilovers. The rears had a remarkable difference, fronts not soo much in my opinion. It improved handling greatly and ride felt softer but I put more on tires now than on suspension.

I am the OP: My 100 became too much of a headache to maintain, the 200 is the opposite closing in at 300k miles with little maintenance. I did prefer driving dynamics and looks of the 100 over 200. I tried being a 100 purist as long as possible. 200 is just more refined and became my goto...

Different Thread. It was a new version of KO2 that was made of slightly harder rubber and is near indestructible. Will not wear down BUT loses some snow/rain performance slightly due to rubber being harder. Over 110K miles on mine and still look brand new.

Will there be a DT version? I have gotten used to not replacing tires every 40k miles. MY DT's are 9/10 after 100k+ miles as checked by pep boys during alignment.

FYI I have done this 10+ years across 300k+ miles on my 100/200 with no issues until now. It just feels so strange to me after a decade.

It went away today after installing new gas cap (ridicously tight), resetting codes and stopping from pumping gas while car on for 1-2 weeks. My question is will I need to keep car off or can I go back to my original method of leaving car running while pumping gas. It started in blistering...

This is me at every stop light on a hill

How would you compare Blisteins/Kings to the icons in terms of comfort? When I originally bought my icons 5 years ago I regretted not buying Kings from Ben at Filthy and having them custom valved, I think he quoted $7k vs $2k icon 2.5s cdvs ran me on black friday. Handling of the icons is...
