Yup, looks like a truck to me. Same color as Don's too. http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5216/5...5fa4233b_b.jpg 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 - - Show 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. Unlikely scenario. Next time the little boat you tow starts pushing your car/suv down the highway when you are trying to brake or stop, a light might come on in that thick skull of yours. Also the tail wagging the dog syndrome affects little cars like yours, when towing. Like it or not, the laws of physics are not affected by your cheapness and lack of consideration for your fellow man, on the highways and byways -- 1-20-13 The end of an error |
