Title: What should I do in this situation?
Post by: FoxHondaRider on June 05, 2008, 04:35:05 PM
I went from going to buy a Toyota Tundra to then a Nissan Frontier, then saying Toyota Tacoma it is. Gas milage is going to kill me so I want to get the 4 cylinder Tacoma. My dad offered me this though. I can buy a hitch for his Toyota Highlander and then buy a more fuel efficient car and whenever i want to go riding I will use my dads vehicle. I dont know what I should do now because I wanted to just load up and go instead of worrying about a trailer but this offer doesnt sound so bad. What do you guys think I should do. Buy a Toyota Tacoma or buy a hitch and stuff for my dads vehicle then buy a Honda Accord or something?

Go with the truck. Depending on other people can get annoying.

if the taco's a 2wd 4cyl how far do you drive an accord doesnt do much better
 a buddy of mine has an 01 single cab shortbed on 31's w/ the 2.4 4cyl gibson exhaust and cold air and gets 20+ around town and 25 highway

american vehicles tend to have problems and not last nearly as long as foreign vehicles no offense to people who drive american vehicles.
