2005 Toyota Tacoma X-Runner
So as recommended by j0n, I dropped by the Toyota dealership today to test drive the X-Runner... not too shabby at all.
It handles pretty close to the camaro, but from what I know of trucks, it seemed to be pretty damn smooth around the exit ramps. Barely any roll whatsoever. Pickup was nice, I believe it's 245 hp/275 torque, and curb weight of 3690.... so yeah, not too shabby at all.
If j0n wants to buy it and sell the T/A, I'd support him... but I'd get full rights to call him a RICER whenever I damn please.
...j0n, if you do happen to get the truck, I will kindly await your requests for me to order you new ricer taillight assemblies, cause I'm sure that's the first thing you'll do to it :P

both matt & jeff had been selling theirs as recently as a month ago lol...jeff sold his a few months back...most are a bit overpriced for what they are IMHO...i think jeff sold his for ~6 grand...for a 15 year old 2wd truck thats a good bit of money.
