Our Cars (dream or actual)

@Inorganic thanks! I traded my GR86 in for it. Much more convenient for taking my 4 year old around, but I really miss it!

[Inorganic]

@choco I'll be honest I had to ask the oracle (google) what a GR86 is...I've seen them around but haven't driven one. They look sporty and fast - words I seldom use when describing toyotas (i own a 96 land cruiser! fun for sure, reliable to a fault, but slow and capable as hell)

Subaru needs a new ac compressor so instead im starting to look for a smaller than an F-250 pickup in anticipation of the 2nd attempt at full time traveling. Not sure which trailer we’ll be going with but definitely smaller then a 30’ Airstream. Any suggestions? Thinking Ranger, Tacoma, Colorado size.

[Matt]

Or is someone can find me a good deal on a yellow Subaru Baja I’ll just get that without telling Katie.

@Matt Depending on the size of the trailer…Have you thought about the bronco’s? They use the ranger frame and have about the same towing capacity. More room for the family and gear which would be nice if towing a smaller trailer.

[choco]

@Inorganic not very fast, but the best driving car I have ever had. It really is the last affordable sports car

[Matt]

I am in a local minority here in that I like the new bronco. Not the Sport and not the version with the flared fenders. I’m old school.

[Matt]

Buuuut… about $20k more than a pickup.

@Matt If we can agree on the 2door rather than the 4door, let's ride!

[Matt]

Obviously.

[goosehd]

Got room for one more? I would own one if the towing capacity was higher, but I do love it.

[Bored In Breck]

@Matt I pull a 21ft travel trailer with a 2019 Tacoma TRD OR. The towing capacity is 6800 lbs. Pulls it fully loaded just fine…BUT the transmission will drive you nuts. It bounces between gears like nothing I have ever driven.

[Matt]

I’ll definitely get something with tow assist. That made a big difference when I had the Airstream.

[steelworker]

@Matt to me Tacoma has a rough ride

[Matt]

The Ranger is a redesign this year. I’d like to check that out.

[steelworker]

my son has a Colorado he likes the price gave me a nosebleed

[louisbosco]

@Inorganic take a look at the new GR Yaris and corolla. they're a hoon

[goosehd]

@endo and I believe @Daniel-San https://www.vw.com/en/models/id-buzz.html

[Dmart]

@goosehd my neighbour had one. Fun to drive.

[endo]

I know @goosehd have seen a few live here, nice car, but besides some design aspects not much in common with the 'VW Bus' (T1-T5 series) IMO though
