    Tundra / 3rd gen wheel swap?

    I'm about to become the proud Papa of a (new to me) used Tundra, and I don't like the wheels on the Tundra. I'm thinking of doing a 3-way swap between: '00 Tundra (4X4 if that matters) Least favorite, these would go on the Tacoma to be sold '01 4Runner (I like these 5-spokes, these would go...

    4th gen V6 vs. V8. Pros/Cons, MPG

    Thanks for all the great feedback guys, this will help him make an informed decision. The one he had been looking at appears to have been sold, so this may open up his choices a bit. It sounds like the 4th gens are getting as good or better mileage with a bigger engine/more HP/more room than...

    This isn't you is it? It sounds like you really "Love" your car.:boink::naughty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0S642NtHtE You'll never have to choose between your dog and anything else at the pearly gates, because in most cases our dogs will already be there, and they will probably have a...

    Okay, I edited the original post to reflect the tongue in cheek that I mistakenly thought was obvious. His masculinity is fine, really just looking for MPG numbers here, thanks.:ybrick:

    4th gen V6 vs. V8. Pros/Cons, MPG

    Oh my Gawd, that's about as hilarious as it is helpful, thanks. :yawn: Not very accurate, by the way. Everyone knows Subaru's are for Lesbians. Thanks, I'll be sure to tell him. 470SNC, thanks for the actual answer. Anybody else have real-world numbers or experience they'd care to share?

    4th gen V6 vs. V8. Pros/Cons, MPG

    Hi all, I have a friend who decided a straight single dude in his late 30 shouldn't drive a Camry, and is considering buying a 4Runner. *DISCLAIMER* The preceding sentence is for entertainment purposes only, and is meant in jest. What is the real world difference in MPG between the 4.0 V6 and...

    What hobbies do you have?

    "Pretty important"?! I would say your life depends on it. What kinda' water temps are you guys splashing around in? Good for you, man. I don't know if I could hang for very long surfing in the great northwest. I'm guessing you have to wear 5/4 wetsuits in the winter, maybe get away with a 4/3...

    Towing capacity

    So I picked up 3/4 yard of the crushed rock @ 1,800 lbs. They like to do the material in 1/4 yard increments and I didn't want to do a full yard @ close to 2,500 lbs. w/o trailer brakes. My guys are laying down the gravel down now, so I'll go get another 3/4 yard in a little bit, and then have...

    Driving from Argentina to Canada by VW Bus

    That's awesome! Very cool opportunity to share a meal with them, I'm sure they have some stories to tell. I'll have to check out their website when I have more time. So they're in Texas now? Do you know when they started? I would love to have the free time and disposable income to do something...
