Random --- TWO trucks?

I am glad there are others with multiple trucks. I have currently in my driveway a
2007 4Runner with 55k miles
2002 F350 w/ 59k
1995 Avalon w/314k
1994 Toyota truck w/212k
1995 Jeep wrangler w/90k
1993 Bronco w/160k
1983 Bronco

The 4runner my wife drives and the Avalon is my DD. The F350 is for all the big stuff and when the family goes camping. The little toyota pickup does most of the pickup truck type things since its more fun to drive. The jeep is my offroad truck. Neither bronco runs or is registered and the 93 bronco was suppose to be rebuild years ago and has been on hold since my kids came along, this one sits on 35s with f/r lockers. The 83 bronco was my first truck and will rot away in my yard before I sell it. This one had a 9" lift with 40s but now its stock height with car tires, a sad end for such a fun truck.

It may seem crazy but as long as my wife and neighbors don't complain I have no plans on getting rid of any of them.

We did have new neighbors last year and they asked if we were having a party lol. I told them nope its only me and my wife I just like trucks. I would never get rid of anything if I lived in an area where my cars didn't rust. Actually that may be a good thing since I would have way too many cars.
 
been there done that..... at one point I had my 12 taco for my dd, the 95 runner a civic for the lady to drive and a BMW motorcycle for me.... I have to admit that while it was nice it did not last very long. we decided to down size, now the 95 runner is her dd vs a back/ snow rig and i still have my taco for my work truck and dd. the BMW and the Civic are both gone. I miss the Mpg and thirty dollar fill ups from the civic and the bad ass fun factor from the BMW, I dont mill the cost of keeping 4 cars/bike running and insured..... some day I would like to get back to it, would love to have a beater old 3/4 or one ton with the runner on stand by the taco for my dd a motorcyle in the shed and some sweet little old school VW or other such nonsense for me to ride when i dont want to drive thtaco or ride the biekwhen it rains...... but of course five rigs and two drivers gets a bit much
 
Besides the 2013 4Runner we have a 2000 Tundra 4WD TRD with 105K miles and a 95 Nissan 2WD pick-up with 175K miles. We drive them all.
 
2010 Trail Edition glorified station wagon.

2007 Tundra Crew Max 5.7 motor with the T U R D supercharger.

Each has it's use for hunting ,shooting, towing my kids karts to the track.

Wish the station wagon had a decent motor other than the gutless slug it came with.

Each has around 25K miles on them, neither is a daily driver. Just stuff to have around.

Wife will not drive the truck because of the license plate I have, tells the great unwashed what I think of them:

I kept my 04 Tacoma 4x4 for awhile after I bought my '12 SR5 T4R. It was a tad hard to part with the tacoma, but after awhile I no longer saw the logic in keeping two. We all have different needs. Also freeing up that extra garage space was really sweet.

Great minds think alike...I am eyeing a Subaru BRZ HARD...but will probably sit tight for another year and see if 2015 brings the elusive STI version.

The STI version is only going to be expensive body work and maybe some brakes. In all honesty not really worth it. I would truly wait to see if it comes pressurized from the factory, otherwise the 2014 Scions are the way to go in my opinion. BRZs aren't worth the extra mark up.

But it is the most fun car I have driven in quite some time, and would recommend it.

:lookout:
 
Hey, great to see a fellow Bronco owner. Here's my weekender.

My thoughts exactly....if no blower, I'd buy a used one and do that vortech supercharger.
