Valid point Trent...remember years ago when the first Ford Taurus came out in late 1985? Everyone said it looked like a space craft, but a year or so later...all the other manufacturers copied it. American's got used to the new designs very quickly. The older models quickly became dinosaurs and looked outdated.
I just want to know what engines are going to be available on the 05 tacoma...and how much are they going to weigh. That will be able to determine my decision on getting one or not.
The current tacoma 2.4 liter 16 valve (142 hp) has been around since 1995. I would assume it's time for a power upgrade. They should be able to tweak that same engine to at least 160-170 hp with vvi. Where's the S/C option? hehehe
