I don't mind them coming here at all. I admire everyone who is passionate about a hobby they enjoy such as Cars and Trucks. Many innovations in the auto industry have started from the home hobbyist. One thing that is consistent with all car / truck forums is that they are filled with people who are greatly knowledgeable about their vehicle and can tell you about every part attached to it.
Those guys are just a little upset that their trucks have lost over half their value in just a couple of years. They are suffering from depreciation envy.
5mpg certainly shows a lot of pride in his vehicle and its engineering. Thanks for showing us your ride and what you've done with it. You obviously understand an engine or two. Take a look around in the technical forum and I think you'll be impressed with what Toyota has done. Don't tell your friends or they might want to buy one and then where will you be? BTW, thanks for your civil posts. As Tony said, politeness is always allowed (as long as it is in the correct forum).
hey im always cool we all joke around about the crappy gas mileage we get it really is what my screen name is in town anyway and about 12 -14 on the highway ........yeah these trucks have depreciated a lot kind of sad actually but its a love for the power not to try to make a quick buck flippin them ...heck i believe there are less then 10000 of them on the world here is a video i made [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GaKAA2U9W0]YouTube - turbo ram srt 10[/ame]
You mean the jogging girl from the first video? I don't know her personally but have seen her around when I roller blade.
The one single best mod you can do to Prius is the driver. One can double the MPG with a mod to the driving behavior.
Former 07 Tundra Crew Max owner...Loved My Truck...Stopped on a Dime, but was costing almost $85 to fill up each time - which I do several times a week minimum...sooo, here I sit ..waiting for the opportunity to be a Proud Touring Prius Option 3 + Leather at Port -Owner and join the conversations...Will have an 09 at the 08 price, per the dealership - as it has been on order since late June...Hoping for Silver Pine Mica, but will look at other colors if they come available... Currently driving a Corolla which is just a tad small size wise, but for the price, a decent mileage vehicle...getting 32mpg consistenly...Only problem is that you can not put adult clients comfortably in the back seat for extended periods of time.. all that being said...I LOVE TOYOTA'S
