Right. Long term the Toyota always wins. That's my argument for the 100. Yeah it gets 13 mpg but it doesn't break
I'm reserving bitching until I get mine back and see what the mpg is. I'd buy a diesel of they made one. The next two rig will be a diesel something. I want to tow a toy hauler. But I can't do that until I can afford a toy hauler, the truck, AND a daily driver. Sigh.

'07 1500 With 215k I still have original trans in my work truck. It has a gutless 4.8.....I am ready for it to die but dread having to break in a new drivers seat.
I really want a CrewMax for next one.

I LOVE the CrewMax. Especially for the childrens. It has more room in the backseat than the 100 did. The only thing is that I don't like the way the seats fold in the newer years.
Call me crazy but I think a 4.8 mated to a Cruiser manual tranny would be perfect in a 60.

I do agree. I think the 07 is the first year of throttle by wire and it is as smooth as Slammer and Indgrids. I would like the motor alot more with out it. With a manual it would be nice and it seems like a small foot print in the engine bay. It could be it is a left coast truck also.
You would delete the drive by wire on a swap I would think.
That's so awesome
I have never like Jags. But I ran up on this bad ass yesterday and when we were in the Big Easy last week there was a Jag dealer convention. We saw the new SUV. It looked pretty damn good.
I will make it to Bier mecca.
I went last year in Frankfurt. Aweome 5 hours. Better go before Sharia law disalows it.

Went to Eurofest today at Renaissance. Some really nice and rare cars, but smaller than past years. They have a new invited non euro group. Robert got to sit in a 1927 Model T. I bet we could fill up a vintage off road group if they wanted one. The guy from Madison had his sweet Defender 110s there.

Just a friendly PSA for our favorite Ginger family...

Another submitted application for our vendor list:
