I'm thinking of buying a Frontier...

Dammit...all this talk about trucks got me to snoopin' around. I found a new 2014 2500HD Duramax Crew Cab Long Bed for under $44k! Under $44k! That's unheard of. And I like my 2012 6.0L just fine. Damn end-of-year incentives may cost me a bundle. I have no willpower when it comes to trucks.

I'm not a fan of what Toyota is doing with their truck headlights and taillights. They awkwardly protrude like they came from something else and were just bolted on the vehicle.

In most instanced the protrusion is to reduce aerodynamic drag and increase fuel economy at highway speeds. It's easier to accomplish this with a clear lens than it is with a painted fender or piece of plastic w/o it looking odd. Lots of manufacturers do this these days.

Toyota is doing it uglier than the others is all I'm sayin'.

How dare you post any opinion that might possibly be slightly negative towards the Tacoma. Even if it's simply your opinion. Inconceivable.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Not sure where I said he wasn't. My opinion is the opposite however. Doesn't make either one the 'right' one.

Nice truck!

I like Nissan's and Toyota's damn near equally (I know, shame on me). I was looking real hard at a frontier Pro4x, but at the end of the day, a first Gen Tacoma was going to be the cheaper choice for the options I was after (4 door, looking rear diff), and I've loved those first Gen 4 doors from the day they started rolling them out.

Slap a pair of breast on them and you start to rethink, Everything.

Is that up at Squaw Pass? Nice looking truck!

I love my '08 Chevy 1500. It rides better than a brand new Tacoma and my truck has 80K on it. It is more comfortable for long trips, more elbow room between passengers, and I love the 5.3L GM V8. Get better fuel economy too. Shutting the doors on the new Tacomas feel similar to shutting them on my '95 Civic. The interior lacks quality in the new Tacoma except the new head unit.

Tacomas have not been known for changing their designs much because most of the time they just work. My old Taco with the 3.4L was awesome. They have always seemed to battle head gasket problems with their 3.0L V6 in the early trucks and in their first gen 4.0L. Those 4.0L head gaskets are nasty too, 20+ hours labor.
