No, we're keeping the 4Runner going for now. The Obamanomics just don't work for an Expedition or other large vehicle. What'd happened to the Tundra?
Got fixed in a week, biggest cost were both of the air bags
And then last week I decided to stimulate the US auto industry!
Bought a chevy crew cab 3/4 ton, duramax diesel
What a brute.
Congrats! What's your take on Chevy vs Toyota now???
Chevy's tow Toyota's to the "bone Yard"
I bought a new Chevy 3/4 ton Crew cab, short bed with Duramax Diesel and Allison 6 speed trans. two weeks ago. First weekend it towed my RV to Buttonwillow for the GGR Club Race...
averaged 13.5Mpg on a green motor. towing at ~60mph +/-.
pulled Pacheco pass in 5th gear and about 1750rpms at ~58mph and was not pushing it.. Probably will be able to pull it in 6th once the motor is well broken in and I am pushing it...
in my burb with 4:10s and 5.3L gas motor Pacheco was in 2nd at about 4200 rpms and 55mph....and I used to avg. 9-11mpg with the burb....
now I have a very nice burb for sale....
