Maybe the dog was aware of this and quit throwing parties cause they didnt have a human to blame it on anymore

 

Good point. She is the most intuitive dog we've ever had. Tied for the smartest. I'm keeping an eye on her now.

 

I am of the opinion that leather seating surfaces in any vehicle sucks, I much prefer cloth.

Cloth seems more durable and nicer in extreme temps but my GF and Dog would destroy it.

 

Lived in fear of wife's coffee cup till i got the leather.

 

Haha!

 

Autonomous vehicles sharing the roads with normal vehicles is a dangerous joke.

 

Autonomous vehicles in general are a joke.

 

Trail riding, even if you camp, is NOT overlanding.

 

I ordered your model 2 times put 10k down and it never came . After 5 months I got an inferno tacoma and hated the transmission. Poor choice on my part. But now They dont have the inferno i wish my tundra was.

 

You just described mine. If you consider Taiwan Chiinah . I had the double cab Raptor. Never once folded down the back seats and the bed was too short to use for work . Not offended but i cant see ever buying a Crew again.

 

I love the look of the Double Cabs. I sort of wish I'd bought my Tundra at a different time in my life so I could have justified one.

 

Financing any vehicle for more than 48 months is insane.

 

I was comfortable with 60 months for my last car but $500/ month is no great hardship and probably about half of what it would cost to finance a full size pickup.

 

At 1.99% or lower at 84 months what's the point of having a higher payment? I put those monthly savings into an investment that's been getting 6% year over year (flat this year so far). I can deal with $3k in interest over 7 years for that lower payment.

Thank you for confirming that my opinion is unpopular.

 

I don't know if this is an opinion but I'm willing to bet it's unpopular around here: if I were still single and living in a condo and thus didn't have anything to haul or tow, I wouldn't be driving a pickup.

 

I don't have to drive a pickup, but I find myself increasingly reluctant to drive any vehicle that doesn't duplicate the seating position and view of the road in front of me that I get when driving a pickup. As much as a like sports cars and other vehicles that have my butt positioned close to the road, I no longer enjoy sitting in or driving them. Give me a new Corvette or NSX, and I won't drive it.

 

I like the fuel economy and maneuverability - both in traffic and when parking - of a car but, between owning a house and my wife needing to take everything she owns when we go camping, a truck is necessary for my life now.

 

Agreed. It makes about as much sense as people who have a car payment their entire lives.

Part of me would love to have a Lexus IS350 or similar but I just like trucks. I will admit that my wife's Rav4 is much more enjoyable to drive around town than my 2002 Tundra.

 

AJT stuff makes your truck look cheap.

 

what do you mean? the bolts or the fact that the chrome is gone ?

 

Bolts and the colored stuff looks like a 16 year old spray painted the inside of his $900 civic.

 

What is AJT?

 

Overlanding is just a road trip with some camping and maybe a bit of offroading thrown in.

 

My idea of overlanding is driving to a remote 5-star Hotel Resort that offers room service.

 

Roughing it if you have to self park.
