    Lots of people have those little buggies or mini trucks in my area. Pretty bad ass.

    Maybe I will move to a community like that. The last time we were up in Idaho visiting family the RZR's were all over the streets. Pretty cool.

    Been waiting on this dumb thing. I'll probably be retired when it's finally released.

    I still have my CDL A but if I register it as the RV, no need....:hattip:

    It would save wear & tear on the Tundra :thumbsup:

    If I "slap it" do you think @ToyoMafia would let me bring it to events :monocle:

    I wouldn’t mind getting an M2 sport chassis. With the cost of HD trucks these days, might be better off buying one of these used.

    My first mid life crisis car was a 350Z at 40, it was a massive failure thanks to the Nissan V6 oil control ring issue. Then I got a succession of trucks & SUVs, my retirement car was a Toyota 86, it was tiny, under powered & silly, big mistake. My final car (god willing & no idiots hit it) at 58 is my Tree, I love the Sequoia and plan to be buried in it.

    Your probably right. I was looking at them and seriously considering one back in 2015. Back then, a pre-emissions M2 with under 100k miles was ~60-68k. If a potential buyer went up to 125-150k miles they were around 45k.

    Now I don’t know how many miles would have to be on your KW to be cheaper than that, but I would assume over 900k and might be due for an in frame overhaul.

    I’m like you though, in a rig like yours I would rather be floating gears. The organization I work for started buying automatics over standards(when I did commercial driving, we had Peterbuilt with 500-550 CATs and 13 spd EF.)
