    Independent Toyota mechanic in Maryland?

    I've been taking my Hondas and Toyotas to Ed's Garage in Monkton right off 83 for years. I live in Rosedale, worth the drive for a mechanic you can trust with reasonable prices.

    2015 Tundra

    The rear windows are a nice touch. Really like the layout of that floor plan.

    2015 Tundra

    Thanks! I'm still saving and shopping around. I'm still trying to decide between a new or used camper. I'm leaning towards new just because it seems like most of the used ones on the market here are used/abused and/or have damage to them. I will check out the Keystone Bullet, what did it run you...

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    Definitely considered it but that added performance puts it out of my price range. I want something sporty and fun to drive but don't need it to blow the doors off everything else on the road. I expanded my search distance and I'm finding some older Subaru Legacy GT models that look great and...

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    A quick search on autotrader.com looks like those models aren't in the price range.

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    I agree, my first couple of vehicles I ever owned were manuals including one that was fairly sporty, an Acura Integra GSR which was a blast. I'd love to grab another MT. I'll checkout the Legacy, the only reason I didn't include Subaru was because a quick search for WRX Imprezas showed they were...

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    Isn't the TC a coupe? I did look at Corollas. Not really sporty but it is pretty appealing to be able to buy a brand new vehicle that meets every requirement except for sporty for under $15k. I adjusted my MT requirement. I would prefer one just because I miss having a MT but I guess it's not...

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    Currently I have a 2015 Tundra CM which is primarily used to haul around the family (and soon to haul a 26-28 foot camper I hope to purchase in the near future). I also have a company car which can be driven for personal use when I'm not working but can only be driven by me and must be within a...

    OK, I need someone to 'splain this to me... Toyota resale pricing

    That's exactly the reason my last 3 cars were all new. Up until 2011 all of my vehicles had been used. I looked around for a 4Runner, Sequoia, and then Tundra for a long time each time I was ready to buy another vehicle. The prices for a used model with low mileage were only a few thousand...

    Kansas Cops Nab Guy In Skyline Doing 176 MPH

    Once the engine blew maybe it was still in the roadway blocking traffic.

    Toyota Sequoia, who has one?

    Around 26, the same as the Tundra. The gas tank is actually small for the fuel consumption of the vehicle. You have to fill up pretty often. That's a pretty common complaint from Tundra owners as well. A lot of people who tow with their Tundra/Sequoia buy an aftermarket 33 gallon fuel tank to...

    Toyota Sequoia, who has one?

    I had a 2014 Sequoia Limited that I had for about a year before I traded for my Tundra. The ride and luxury features were amazing. Very smooth over rough roads especially compared to the stiff suspension on my Tundra. Gas mileage was always around 11-12 MPG. That was for about 25% Highway...

    Adding AC?

    That's the direction I'm leaning. I've been looking for a 5 speed but the lack of AC and ANY power options might be a deal breaker. He's asking $4k which is too much. Was hoping to get it around $2,500 but like I said I haven't even seen it.

    Adding AC?

    Would the AC parts be the same from a v6 3rd gen?
