what did you end up deciding?

I bought a Tacoma, and a Cummins engine. I am in the process of putting it in.. I will post pics later this week.

I get what your sayin, so would i believe me. But it is art, take it for that and appreciate it.

Just because it is a photograph does not make it art. I am going to go take a picture of my morning crap and post it. I think that should drive my point home.

That is ALWAYS the thing people look over and I agree any 1/2 ton or under isn't really setup to pull a car on a loaded trailer. Will it do it? Sure safely though that's a whole other ballgame. Regardless if its three or four times a year then I'd still want to do it the correct and safe way. If you are only going to tow a few times a year why not rent a truck or borrow a friends? I wouldn't want the everyday driver and gas mileage of a truck it I only realistically needed it a few times a year.

I also need the bed. Hauling gutters in the Maxima was not ideal.

Realistically i am going to have to compromise. I will be towing the car 3-4 times a year at most. Norwalk etc.

Most often I will be just driving it around. I like the idea of that Tacoma a lot.

I am going to see if I can get some more real world input on how it tows.

I know Vuk towed his Viper to Norwalk with his Xterra. They are only rated at 5000lbs.

Ok, just finished watching it and I've re-watched the Coney Island scene about 5 times and still can't see where the monster is on the screen.

 

It was ok, but I think the link I watched (see above) isn't good enough to get the full picture here. Guess I'll be going to the theater.

Did you at least see his name tag?

Get a `05 or newer tacoma 4x4 double cab. I had the same basic problem when I was looking for a vehicle. I wanted 4 wheel drive, 4 person seating when necessary, towing capacity, and not terrible gas mileage.

I went all out and got the TRD offroad model with extra truck stuff like a locking rear differential. It gets 19-21mpg city or highway. Tows 7,000lbs easily. I've had it towing 8,500lbs and it was just getting sluggish and slower to stop. Then engine has over 50K on it now and still needs to go twice that far before any maint is necessary.

We use it as a nice vehicle to go places in and the 4 wheel drive has let us take it to some fun places.

I think I am in love...

jetta tdi

If I buy one, will you date me?

No VWs for me.

Eric, I don't think a Jag is going to tow a Supra, or haul home remodeling shit.

get an old stick 4 banger honda or toyota to beat around in and good full sized 1 ton truck or cargo van to tow stuff with

Trying to get away from beaters. Also, whatever I get needs to have a bed for hauling. I am liking the diesel idea. I am doing more research.

I must of missed it in the Coney Island shot, oh well. The Monster is fairly original in its looks and yes you get to see it.

If you look close, you can see his name tag. His name is Steve. I think he was just looking for the restroom.
