Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
I'm always running stuff between the two houses ... I like the extra bed space. Was it a must have, no, but it is nice. The larger gas tank that comes with the longer bed is a nice plus as well.

Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
————————————————I think they look just right. It’s the double cabs that look weird to me.
Long beds just look awkward to me.
I’ve mentioned this before but it still applies.
I talked to 2 contractor guys, one at each of the big box lumber yards a few years ago. I told them their truck looked out of place these days and they both asked me why. I said, “your truck only has two doors”. They both replied, “ I need the bed space (8 feet) more than I need 2 more doors”. Since they both said the same thing, I’m inclined to believe they’re right.

Re: I spotted an (insert obscure car name here) classic car today!
I saw the clean burgundy 90-91 Taurus I usually see street parked out on the road today, so it's being drive, even had a dog in it. It's in nice enough condition where it isn't that way by coincidence, someone is caring for it.

Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
My 2023 short bed Tacoma was infinitely easier to drive and park than the 2019 long bed Tacoma I had.With the popularity of fullsize 4-door pickups regardless of bed size, it is disquieting to pull into a parking lot in a normal size car and come out later to find yourself bracketed by a pair of Peterbilts on either side towering over you and leaving little space on either side.I tend to park my truck at the back of the parking lot. It is longer than your typical parking spot and I either end up sticking out past the spot or over the line reducing the space for the spot behind me. The longer bed on this truck makes it even worse than my 2022.
Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
I didn't know Toyota made an 8 ft bed. I've never seen one.
Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
I could probably deal with a standard cab 6.5’ bed half ton. Other than being so wide with an overly tall hood.

Curiosity got the best of me.... yep, it is a thing. Truck looks so much better as a crew cab 6.5' bed

Re: Edmunds Members - Cars and Conversations
In NC, 15 over is reckless driving, in a 70 zone, 10 over is considered reckless driving. That doesn't seem to deter many.
