    I test drove the 4th gen Tacoma tonight. Unexpectedly slow. I know from experience Toyotas get faster once they're broken in but the first impression is not great lol. The transmission's shifts were somewhat lethargic as well. You guys know I'm not like a lot of the third genners on here who feel the need to defend their generations honor so I'm giving a legit opinion. The truck that I drove happened to be a limited. I will readily admit that the ride was great, the seats were super comfortable, and the technology was fantastic. Honestly this is a real relief because if the new Tacoma felt like it was a fair bit faster than my current truck it would have made the decision to keep my current Tacoma a lot more difficult.

    Damn it. You should go drive a Frontier. They're more affordable too!

    I actually drove a new frontier and the powertrain felt very similar to the current Tacoma AKA mushy and unbothered.

    Huh. I thought it felt much smoother, but I was also towing when I drove it. I just hated the ergonomics.

    Congrats on starting the journey. Lot's of great advice and positivity coming from everyone. I'll add one small piece, if you stumble for whatever reason, don't let it push you back into a spiral. Act like it didn't happen and keep on chugging along with your goal.

    Just imagine how much more awesome sleep will be in a week or two. When I was boozing, I had the shittiest sleep imaginable and was always tired.

    Yep.

    If you don't make it a month, you can always hang your hat on " I only drank one time this month" or whatever it ends up being.

    It's not an all or nothing thing.

    Ok @OldGuy03 , enough sober advice from me for one day. :D

    So strange...I've always felt like the OEMs have a "baseline" program that the vehicle starts with before it learns your driving habits that is more aggressive and with better shifting.

    I don't. He's obviously on board with it. I just hope he's already had a vasectomy.

    The Gluteus Maximus is the largest muscle in your body.

    In fact it's a huge ass muscle.

    You're right, how insensitive and uncaring of me. I probably need to retake some of those training they make me do at work.

    Why couldn’t they start out with: “Jan is a black woman who’s DTF anyone.”

    Now you have my attention and I will sit through the rest of the slides, eagerly wondering if she will ever be fulfilled - both medicinally and sexually - in her new bumpkin digs.
