What was your previous ride?

[2uzfejake]

Owned a 2003 Honda Pilot EX-L.


Rode smoothly enough....just that when the fuel EVAP purge system went South, NO-ONE between 5 different Honda dealers and One Acura dealer (WITH strong connections) COULD NOT fix the thing, over a 14 month period....had my friends at the Acura dealer turn off the CEL/MIL one last time and traded it in on my current 2004 T4R V8 Limited and have NOT looked back since. I'll take reliability over driveability ANY TIME!!!!!! Also Honda DOES NOT build full box section framed trucks, with V8's, or any front or rear solid axles at all!!!!!!!! Toyota BUILDS trucks!!!!!!!

Nuf Said.

I believe the original post was...

"Just curious to get a sense of what the current Toyota owners here were driving in the past.
What did you have as your immediate previous vehicle not your entire vehicle history prior to this Toyota?

I'll start. I came from a rust-bucket GMC Jimmy T10.
What was "your previous ride"

LOL

I'm also curious what vehicle people went from, to their 4runner,
but I personally don't want to know what you guys were driving in 1984.

Believe me, you don't want to know what I was driving then!

LOL

[hemitruk]

Had an 06 Dodge Charger RT.Was sweet but needed the utility and reliability.

The only time I drive off road is in my yard at home. The engine is very weak and underpowered.
