The first gen drives small, but on paper it was basically the same width as my F150. The second gen is just big and bloated.

Oh...those overpriced 1958s are so rare to find.
I bet the three dealers close to my house will beat your dealer in terms of piling 1958s. At least 10 in each last time I saw.
Future BaT classic, like the HE 200?Oh...those overpriced 1958s are so rare to find.
I wish I could say that I don't think this is a bad car, but man, it just felt like a Tacoma inside (which makes sense I suppose with the shared LC/Tacoma parts). It just has too much cheap plastic to be priced the way they are pricing them. I can't fathom how any person who has owned any the last 3 generations of wagon can think this is even close to a good value at $54k (?, I didn't look at the sticker), but I suppose that isn't really the guy who is gonna buy one of these (with a few exceptions). Even if we're talking 4Runner bros looking to level up, I truly and wholeheartedly believe that this should have been positioned below the the new 4Runner. Sort of like a Tacoma SUV.
Considering the features and general vibe of the vehicle, I think it would be a great first car for a teenager or maybe a kid going off to college, but again, the pricing is way off.
I have a 01 Poverty Spec 4 door Taco (4 cyl, no tach, no sliding window)- very rare in USA and I have a fully loaded 2022 DCLB 4x4 Taco Offroad (long bed is illegal in CA in 4x4, so had to bring it ordered from Montana).
Also have many cruisers, and none of my Tacos even come close to a Cruiser... and I don't expect them to.
Good comparison saying its a wTacoma SUV
The crows caw loudest when legends fall... and new ones rise.
Cool.

Macho insecurity at its finest calling a basic 5 seater 'woman’s car' while flexing a 7-seat luxury station wagon. Overcompensating never looked so obvious.

You fellows are FUNNY!
hey don't you need to be replacing your 200 motor for the third time ?
^more ammunition for the 250 kids to hate on the 200... unreliable 5.7L and all
Hmmm. Cite your sources please. I googled "Crow caws" and got this. No mention of legends rising or falling.
Understanding Crow Vocalizations
The Basic Calls
Crows employ a range of vocalizations beyond the typical caw. These include rattles, coos, and even what can sound like laughter. The simple caw itself can vary in tone and duration, conveying different messages. Two caws often mean “Where are you?” with a response expected from another crow. Three caws frequently signal “Danger!” These basic calls act as foundational language for their communication.The Intensity of Calls
The loudness of the call is also a key indicator. Louder calls are often used to give the impression of a larger, stronger group, especially when facing a predator. The intensity of the calls often correlates with the urgency of the situation. A loud, persistent barrage of caws indicates a serious matter demanding attention from the surrounding crow community.
Touché, but do I have some sort of weird ceramic(?) tint that keeps things alarmingly cool in the summer. Every now and then I go full station wagon and turn on the ventilated seats.
I like when you say in the video: "Ahh...that's better". I had the exact same reaction when jumping back in my 200 after seating in the Prado. It is the same when I drive the wife's 5th gen runner and go back to the 200...maybe even a little less since the runner is much less spartan than that 1958.
well Actuallly, that last part fits perfectly. A loud, persistent barrage of caws indicates a serious matter demanding attention.' Sounds like crows mourning the fall of a legend.
