Drove Another Colorado ZR2 Today

Yeah, some of those EV and hybrid backup warnings are interesting.

Listen to some KIAs. Sounds like a spaceship. Wife will set in the driveway in reverse way too long before moving forward.

You're right, the Kias for some reason do sound like a spaceship. lol We walk every night after dark through the neighborhood and one night someone up ahead of us was backing out of their driveway and I thought the Mothership was coming for us. Unfortunately it was only a Kia SUV.

My wife's car is a Kia and it just beeps, though it does beep loudly

The CRV I heard did indeed sound like something from Close Encounters.

it won't get a v8... it will be hurricane 99.9% sure

There is an uprising by custumers to bring back v-8s in full size trucks. Lets hope it carries over to mid size. A dokota with a 6.4 and rr with a coyote....we can dream, no? I remember when they announced the 2.7 for Ranger and I was like, cool, but was not sold on the 2024 front end and new mostly digital ipad dash ( still not truth be told) But when I heard about 3.0 in the RR and saw the promo vid I was smitten. Glad I waited until they were reasonably priced.
But let us hope they do a srt dokata with a 6.4 or even 5.7 and a Ranger Raptor R with a 5.0 or VOODOO! Then Chevy would have to respond with a hot small block v-8.
Fever dreams I know but we can hope! Great time to be alive and buy cool trucks. Come along way since I thought my 1999.5 Nissan hardbody 4x4 was cool

I helped my son buy a 2023 iforce max platinum Tundra - 36k miles, lots of power and it's delivered smoothly with Yota's hybrid and the rear coil suspsension gives it a smooth ride. I'm not concerned about the engine longevity, the main issue I'm aware was the crank bearing which was limited to certain production runs. I'd considered a Tundra as it would be a big step up for towing but I no longer drive a whole lot of miles annually, so will look at lower cost models from Ford and Chevy, Chevy is touting their new V8 engines, before they had their crank bearing isses those engines were durable, some had lifter problems and the new V8s have supposedly rectified that issue.

I litterly went to San Antonio to pick up my 2007 Tundra 5.7 to get one of the first 500 made. The motor was amazing. The rest of the truck not so much. It was my last Toyota truck after owning 6 prior.
Twin turbo v6s work, especially torque wise. But my 2007 with a h pipe and magna flow 50s was pure sex
