modern trucks and the tacoma mystique

The new taco isn't even that good, a 3.6 that makes all it's power at like 6 thousand rpm, and a transmission that doesn't have a clue what it wants to do, drum brakes in the back lmao. They do look cool though, but I just don't see the value in the truck compared to what you'd pay for an equal frontier, it's all just Toyota tax based on the hype of previous models. I do like the new 4 runners though.
Meanwhile Ford introduces the new ranger.. and it looks awfully like the Honda Ridgeline.. gee I wonder why that ain't selling well.
I like the Colorado zr2 but even it is kinda dorky looking, at least it seems somewhat capable.
I'm not holding my breath for the new frontier, from what I've heard they're really hyped up on throwing more technology into it. Which probably means theyll more electro gizmos that nobodies actually asking for.
Id have a raptor in a heartbeat even if it is a Ford.
People should refuse to buy any new car or truck unless it's electric assist.
I could google this but didnt Dodge sell the Ram brand to Fiat?

Well these trucks ain't for you in the first place.. we ain't interested in towing shit, just need clearance and functiality to get to the best camp spots.

Or the e-F-150. And the Atlis. There should be some choices for the wealthy pick up driver soon.
I drove a f-150 Raptor for a fisherman last week, the 478 hp of V6 twin turbo power, sounded like a hot V8, the sound, the acceleration, the price ... incredible !
I was sitting in a tacoma last week, 3 of the 4 guys inside could buy whatever, they were tacoma owners and the carpenter had an old work truck

Can you imagine Hockey Night in Cda w/o those obnoxious ads pimping gaz guzzling pickups?
The mother corp engages all kinds of behaviour modification techniques in its programing, surely only allowing ads that depict Sunday drivers in hybrid/plug-in/electric vehicles falls within their purview.
Find a plane base model F-150 4x4 with an ecoboost then add the wheels and tires you want. The simple black grill looks way better than the chromed out garage queens.
Good call, Man I fucking hate plastic chrome.
