You know you want a Cummin's just so you can put some really "cool" decals in the rear window.
We saw one of those Bro Tard’ED out Diesel trucks with oversized pipes and wide stupid wheels, but it had a cool sticker #blacksmokematters

I've heard the engine in those is very underwhelming.

IDK, but I bet Nissan did that to meet epa #’s, probably mods out there to get power back

I haven’t priced them, but might be the cost of a small house.

Tommy want wingy..
Don’t look at the price of a new super dookie. Sticker shock is an understatement. But then again look at what people pay for a new Tacoma.

Yep, I saw some new roll by in the peanut Festival parade at $72k.
My Ford F-150 Screw 3.5 loaded out Lariat wasn’t cheap, but hell I financed it, my 2013 Honda Accord EX was paid for in cash, traded it in on the Ferd, I needed a bigger tow vehicle for our RV and SA streets just suck for cars in general and just before I bought the truck I had just put the rest my pennies into oil stocks when they were priced low, the prices were beyond their 52week avg lows and other factors involved, along with the RSI and MACD signaled buy, buy, buy (part of the
Lost Sheep, Build Thread.) ...been going up since 27%+, I think one is up at 34% plus the dividends, I usually pay cash, but hell the market is paying for my truck
...damn near free 
What's crazy to me is the price people pay for new Chevy's and the interior falls apart. I hopped in one of my subcontractors Chevy truck that's only a couple of years old and the buttons on the radio are scratched off, leather's cracked and interior looks like it's aged a decade already.

One reason I was glad my Laundry Fairy dumped hers for the LX, don’t forget to mention Chevy has a huge problem with dash cracking as well, her dash had about 1 inch crack already and I already replaced the AC knobs, and those didn’t last long either

Lexus has a huge problem with cracking dashes as well. Get ready for it.

Yes I have heard, but the Chevy fix compared to Lexus fix are night and day.

Guy at my work is just trading in his SR5 2nd Gen Taco for a new Chevy Colorado this weekend. His Tacoma is his truck work gives him $$ to drive. Work is buying him a truck to drive so the boss can write it off. My boss didn't want to exceed 30k and my co-worker didn't want to buy a used Taco so Chevy was the only option. Ill let you know how it makes out being driven in Philly 95% of the time and taking a daily city beating.
I am curious to see how well they hold up over 100,000 and 500,000 miles.

That's Mr Asshole to you
Not well at 100 and you think it will see 500????
Which is why Toyota will still retain their value against the Colorado in the long run.

Agreed, I think the stabilitrack and electric power steering will end up being very problematic once higher mileage sets in
I want to see how well the electric power steering handles big mud tires too. I have no issue with the idea; I just do not know if the idea is ready yet. Ford has been using electric power steering on a few models for a while now but not many of them get abused off road like we do the rigs.
