Works every time.


Today I learned that my wife might have a mangina

I did read something today that said it might not be body on frame anymore. I can't imagine Toyota ever making the 4Runner not off road oriented, but that worries me.

If a new T4R means a crossover, I'd be okay with the current generation forever..

I'd be OK with a fifth gen with a 3.0L turbo or twin turbo, six gears, 340 hp and 350 ft-lbs. I'm not greedy.

I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express over the weekend. Watched a fella put down a plastic step stool so 3 old ladies could get into the back of his GMC Sierra Pickup.


To quote John Wayne from the cheesy movie - Ballad of the Green Berets - "Adapt, Improvise, Overcome."

I liked this quote from the article:

"I typically launch into a sermon on the dynamic and packaging virtues of the Highlander. It’s so much better to drive, I say. The 4Runner drives like a bag of rocks pulled by a Clydesdale that was recently exhumed from the Pet Semetary. If the 4Runner could communicate, it would do so through pointing and grunting."
