Evaluating life over 3,385.5 miles in a 2022 4Runner TRD Pro

Alright hoons, this one is going to be a bit different, a bit more personal if you’ll indulge me. As Ferris Bueller said, “life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” So, I decided I was at a point where I needed to get…

2023 Toyota Sequoia Platinum l Review
/
/
comments
Second albums are always hard, many a band have fallen flat on their sophomore record. Toyota’s second-generation Sequoia-the-sequel (part deux?) debuted with a strong performance on the album sales charts back in 2008. However, from literally every model year forward sales dropped significantly, the 2021 model only made it to 8,070 driveways across the country.…

2022 Toyota Supra 2.0 – No Respect
/
/
comments
The Toyota Supra, in four-cylinder form, is a bit of an odd duck. Supra is maligned for being a rebadged BMW to start. Having only an automatic is second, third, being stuck with a four-cylinder engine. Now let’s add to that the $50,000 as-tested price. Nissan now offers the Z with more interior space, more…

If I never read another “Nice BMW” comment regarding the fifth generation Supra, I’ll end my time on this earth in peace. Why internet commentators believe that they have some insider knowledge that no one else has is beyond me. We know who makes it. However, that tension framed my most recent encounter with the…

2022 Toyota GR86 Premium l Review

I’ll say this up front, I was never a massive fan of the original FR-S/BRZ/86. Conceptually, sure I was all in. A light two door RWD coupe, yes please. However, in practice I just never came to love any of them, and it came down to one reason. Power. Sure, you can have massive fun…

2022 Toyota Tundra 1794 CrewMax l Review

comments
The Toyota Tundra is a relative newcomer to the truck world, only having been around since the year 2000. The new millennium brought us Toyota’s replacement for the old T100 truck, the XK30/XK40 Tundra. An entire twenty two years later and we’re just now getting the third generation of Toyota’s full-size truck. That first generation…

2022 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro – Let’s Take Another Look!

comments
Having just completed a week in the Toyota 4Runner reminds me of how I genuinely enjoy the analog experience. I remember several years ago, six, perhaps seven years actually, the last time I spent time with the 4Runner. I recall it being an honest vehicle. That remains true today. While the platform is quite old,…

“Why are dinosaurs always green?” That line, posted to Twitter in response to a photo of this vehicle, stayed with me throughout the entire loan. I’ve been overly critical in my reviews about the lack of updates to Toyota’s more rugged vehicles like the Tacoma, Tundra, and the 4Runner. Mercifully the Tundra was updated for…

Last week, I was in San Antonio to drive the 2022 Toyota Tundra. I shot a video for Autotrader, which you can watch below. But I wanted to pop it over here to add in some written talking points for those of you not eager to sit through a nearly 15-minute long video. The gist…

It is day 265 of the year 2021 A.D. and I just sat down to write about the twelfth crossover to end up in my driveway this year. I am trying to stay positive, but at first glance this Toyota Venza looked a bit like the last one, it was even the same color. However,…
