Duh!
That is a 1st generation model.
My model is more like your wife's Highlander in size.
Sorry to disappoint you but my colour is a bronze/brown..........
pyrite mica to be exact.

Herring bought a truck four times the size he needed to tow his boat.
D'oh.

And/or his camper. There's a good reason why too. Pulling his camper
with the Highlander the fuel mileage was anywhere from 8-12 mpg. the
diesel pickup gets double the mileage pulling either one, plus you not
only gain on the braking factor, but also the pulling response behind
a duramax is like the truck isn't pulling anything. *Better safety,
better economy, less wear and tear and less carbon footprint.

good decision.

Depends on how often and how far one tows one's camper, eh?

You freakin' idiot, it makes no difference how often and how far he tows
the camper. If he tows it one mile or one million miles, he's still
getting better mileage.- Hide quoted text -

Yiikes... are you really that stupid?
If Johnny only towed his trailer/boat 5 miles from his house to his
favourite campground or launch... how could you justify the extra
expense of the big diesel truck compared to the useable Highlander,
that he already owned?
If you would only quit playing with your 'little head' and give your
'big head' a shake, things might make more sense.

Now it is the expense of the truck. *My diesel truck gets 19 mpg highway,
cost $45k new. *My 99' Ford Expedition got about 15.5 highway and cost $42k.

That's lame...

Well, I'm not going to invoke the names of your family members a few
thousand times. *That* is the definition of lame, Mr. PMSS.

No, you stalk them and post their personal financial information....

I've never stalked any member of your family *or* posted financial
information. You've repeated this bit of paranoia so many times now that
you believe it, but it is no more true now than it was the first time
you farted it into this newsgroup.

You sent the financials to Donny and tricked him into posting it. You
then proceeded to deny any involvement, leaving poor dumb Donny swinging
in the wind. That's quite the reward for Donny's loyalty and devotion to
you.

Toyota makes very good vehicles, even the RAV4. It's no truck
however, not even a proper SUV. Most SUVs will plow snow if called
upon. If you're happy with your wimpy little electric snow blower,
that's fine with me but it means that you don't get much real snow.

Here's a picture of "real snow" from my old home town:
