- ToolGuy 9 miles a day for 20 years. You didn't drive it, why should I? 😉
- Brian Uchida Laguna Seca, corkscrew, (drying track off in rental car prior to Superbike test session), at speed - turn 9 big Willow Springs racing a motorcycle,- at greater speed (but riding shotgun) - The Carrousel at Sears Point in a 1981 PA9 Osella 2 litre FIA racer with Eddie Lawson at the wheel! (apologies for not being brief!)
- Mister It wasn't helped any by the horrible fuel economy for what it was... something like 22mpg city, iirc.
- Lorenzo I shop for all-season tires that have good wet and dry pavement grip and use them year-round. Nothing works on black ice, and I stopped driving in snow long ago - I'll wait until the streets and highways are plowed, when all-seasons are good enough. After all, I don't live in Canada or deep in the snow zone.
- FormerFF I’m in Atlanta. The summers go on in April and come off in October. I have a Cayman that stays on summer tires year round and gets driven on winter days when the temperature gets above 45 F and it’s dry, which is usually at least once a week.

So... any word on an Xrunner? I don't need an off-road vehicle and I've always been partial to Toyota trucks since my dad's mid-80's blue one. DD, light hauling every once in a while, and something to give me the odd smile every so often on my backwoods drive home. Although the ever-non-functional hood scoop irks me to no end. Otherwise I'm probably off to CUV territory. Those AWD CX-5's test drive well, wonder how they'd fare with a little trailer for trips to the hardware store...
Same ole, same ole. Did anyone really expect anything else? It's Toyota, and they own the market, so just getting a Taurus grille on the most recent Tacoma as the 'All-New Model!' shouldn't surprise anyone. It pretty much goes without saying that the drivetrain and interior won't be getting anything other than perfunctory changes, as well. It sure would be nice if the new Colorado kicks the Tacoma's ass, but I don't see the Colorado as being anything earth shattering, either.
