It was funny I know it was a joke, but yeah those 3 series sedans are kinda ugly I like the 2 door coupes. I like the fact I got a toyota motor, reliable even when people are putting turbos and pushing around 300WHP at 8-10psi.

Dont hate on Toyota mmmmmmm AE86

There bringing back the the AE86 in spirit! Toyota is teaming up with subaru to make an affordable lightweight I4 RWD coupe. Apparently is going to use one of subaru's boxer engines, and its estimated to be priced around 20k.

So has anyone heard of the Ford Raptor coming out in the next couple years?

Supposed to be a little lower to the ground, but a lot more suspensin travel than regular F-150. And it might come with Ford's new Boss engine. I think it will be a pretty cool truck when its out.

 

[Cabbs]

Cool I guess, not really into trucks though.

 

[superman22x]

It's going to be like the first stock produced Baja truck. Thats something I want to do when I am done with college... Go out to the dunes, and have fun. I think that would be more fun then driving super cars or anything, take a nice truck out there, and just drive, jump it and all that fun stuff.

 

[Cabbs]

I hope it looks less like an F-150 when it's done IMO.

 

[superman22x]

You dont like the looks of F-150s? Or you just cant see something big and heavy like that jumping sand dunes? lol

 

[Cabbs]

They look OK. I can't imagine a "Raptor" badge on something like that. At first glance, it looks like an F-150.

 

[superman22x]

Well, I think raptor is just a prototype name for it. I like the newer F-150s, but I'm not a big fan of the redesigned 09 ones. I like them more then Dodges and Chevys though. It is going to have the SVT badge on it too it I think. Kind of a special vehicle like the Lightning was.

 

[alvino]

The Lightning. What I really can't stand are all those SUVs and trucks that are souped up and lowered and all that. Trucks do not need coilovers, body kits or 20" wheels with low profile tires. It especially pisses me off when I see those Dodge trucks with that retarded spoiler on the back.

American car makers are so out of touch. No wonder they're losing out to the Europeans and Japanese.
