  3. Maverick vs. Tacoma

    My Maverick is in the body shop and I temporarily have a new Tacoma. Strangely enough, I miss the dial shifter. The controls are harder to figure out, the engine is noiser and buzzy. The ride is bouncy and it's a gas hog compared to my 2.0 awd 4k tow. Looking forward to getting my Mav back
  4. I lucked out... NOT

    I have a 2.0 Lariat I bought off the lot while waiting for my '24 Lariat to come in.

  12. Got in an accident Sunday

    Avoided someone and hit a tree, details kind of fuzzy as I woke up in the hospital and still here. Only 4 or 5 months on my Maverick and I hope it's repairable. I hit my head and conked out which was the worst of it but the pill pushers are playing it waaaaay safe. Total pita in the hospital...
