When the 4th Gens first came out i wanted to cry, but they have grown on me, especially the sport edition i think it is? with the painted plastic, instead of grey plastic. But both have grown on me.

I agree 100%

That green truck actually has 10" of lift, that pic was taken just as it landed from a big drop!

Tell you what, people look up Ahirman, Goodtimes,Lefty, Sedonaz, Bulldog, Tracy, Texas..(that white one) and tell me 4th gen's don't look good. They look great!

Once again, not my taste. But, I'm just giving my opinion. Don't get so pissy again.

Man, if you feel the '95-'97 Tacomas are better looking than the next generation ('01, '02, ect.) tacomas, you're just crazy! The latest Tacomas -before the '05 redesign- are the best I've ever seen!

PICS PICS PICS!!!

Regardless of how everyone feels - this is the current trend people... here to stay until the next trend takes over.

I really didn't like the styling of the 4th gen either but man does it look nice now
... and the new Taco? WOW! I love the way that thing looks
