Talking Don't like it

I don't like any of the new Toyotas, 4Runner, Taco or the Tundra. They all have that generic blah look like all other new cars and those square fender flares/wells. Everything just all looks the same these days way too much!

Looks too much like a Dakota or a Colorado/Canyon from GMC/Chevy

I might change my mind the more I see them

Yea, the new 4Runners have REALLY grown on me to the point of wanting one. I agree with Waskilly that the Tundra is getting Fuglier with every new model.

Thanks for the link

I don't like the wheel wells. Just looks to delicate for me.

Looks like a Tundra from the front and a Colorado from the side.

Found this on another forum.

"Less than 15% of the 2005 Tacoma's will be assembled at TMMBC (Toyota Motors Manufacturing, Baja California.) The Majority (over 85%) will still be assembled at NUMMI in Fremont, California.

The few that will be assembled at TMMBC will be 4x4's or Pre-Runners. No 2 wheel drive Tacomas will be assembled in Mexico.

Truck bed production will cease at TABC, Long Beach and move to the TMMBC location. That means all Tacoma beds will be manufactred in Mexico."

Yes, I found that same information. They will be assembling 20,000 vehicles per year or something like that.

So the real question is, how many 4x4 Tacoma's are sold each year?
