Night & day, but apples & oranges, really ... I miss my Tacoma quite a bit. For the price you couldn't ask for a better truck. Toyota trucks are very popular in Colorado.

The Ram is very nice. The gas mileage is horrendous. I've done a few mods and the truck gets a ton of compliments. The interior is really nice, the seats are terrific, and the Alpine audio is superb. It had remote start from the factory which is great when I stay at my girlfriend's house, since I can't garage it there. Overall, I'm quite happy with the truck.

Is it in your possession? There is some big secret Ford recall right now. They are even sending trucks back to the factory from the local rail yards.

I think the OP means that he and Tony had sex, with each other, and now Tony is placing the order for a Raptor.

That. Car. Rocks.

It doesn't break as much as a Ferrari and it doesn't have the snoot appeal of a Lamborghini but I would drive it in a heartbeat.

I had the chance to drive the first one that got to Oregon. Emptied out a Starbucks at 7:30 on a Sunday morning when we pulled up in it. Unusual, because exotics aren't that rare in Sandy, Ore (believe it or not). Owner drop-kicked a Testarossa for the Ford, and never looked back. He's still got the Ford, with no plans of ever selling it.

Back to the OP- there's a red Raptor Supercab that parks about a block down the street. I'm liking it more every time I see it. I also like their driveway- a CTS-V, a eco-boosted Lincoln MKT, and the Raptor. He and I have the only all-American driveways in the sub-division. He's stylin' though.

Ordered it last week, and I'll shoot you an email/IM when we get a VIN.

This is the only recall I'm aware of, and it is just on diesels.

You're not aware of it because it's a super secret recall.
