Will this message post up?!*New member around here. Currently driving an '88 4WD Toyo pickup I've had for 6 years. Reliable, but wow is it a bouncy old truck.I've poked around several dealers and researched like crazy to put the new Rav4 and 09 Matrix at top of my list. No hurry to buy. Better to save up more while seeing how the Matrix first year issues play out.

I've only owned it for 6 years and it's always had a very stiff suspension, not much body roll in corners, but can feel every bump in the road.... hence, I'm looking at Rav4's or a Matrix for next purchase. I can get by with a hitch/trailer for the occasional trip to the dirt bike park.
