I understand. I'm even thinking of picking up a 2.5RS and swapping the engine. I also need a minivan, but I need one that can haul the kids AND pull a trailer with my 92 Paseo on it. I'd settle for a small SUV too. I was thinking the FJ, but only because I can get it in a manual transmission. If the Hybrid Tahoe didn't cost so much, it would almost be perfect.
Back on topic. I wonder what bright idea Toyota is cooking up for these trucks? If I was Toyota, I would address the boxed frame complaint from the die hard truck crowd and work on making both of these trucks hybrids. The torque that a electric engine puts out would be great for pulling a trailer through the mountains. Maybe some sort of "assist" mode?
