Default your thoughts, Tacoma X-Runner

i am debating on purchasing a new or 2006 model Tacoma X-Runner. the vehicle itself is pretty nice, has descent feature and actualy drives sporty (very un-pickup like, which i doubted).

i just am wondering what you all think of the pick-up...i am going to be using it pretty much as a DD, and having a pickup around will help out around the home alot, as well as making a couple extra bucks on the wknds.

thoughts welcomed....

t.i.a. !!!




and a little teaser for those who love the mods...

looks much much better than regular Tacoma. but the sportiness defeat the purpose of getting a truck, hell you can't even have a tow hitch.
But you know what, that would be perfect for my driving habbit.

I've seen a few before and they look pretty sweet. I'd rock that.

I think it's a good looking truck, my cousin has a black x-runner, just be aware if you get the truck that the front airdam has a tendency to scrape everything. I say go for it
