The first would be a Toyota Tundra, set up as a street truck.... correctly lowered a little, with some fat wheels, rubber band tires.... and what the hey, how about a turbo charger on the truck that is already the fastest on the market
The other would be a ridiculously big, tall 4wd GMC (not a Chevy... I hate the front bumpers on those).
Just kind of rambling / dreaming here...... And heck, most of you guys know I'm pretty whacked out anyway
Peace,

Do you need to talk about something?
This just ain't right - even if it is just a dream.

I'd buy a new regular cab-short box Ranger with a manual transmission, and then use the money that I would have spent on the second truck to swap a nice new crate engine and manual gearbox in place of the stock 4-banger. Spend a little more of the "second truck" money on some nice rims and rubber, as well as a modest drop and I'd have me one hell of a little screamer to play with.....

Hey about Tundra's.... I'd totally expect a lot of Ford (and GM) truck guys to not like them, just as I would expect a lot of Harley Davidson guys to not like Rice Rockets....
But to me, Tundras have that same, high tech sport look (in a truck) as Rice Rockets do (with a bike)..... and I love the look of a bad-a$$ rice rockets (and Tundra Trucks) but then again, I also love the look of a bad-a$$ Harley D (and most Ford trucks, other than an 09-10 F150
Now, I was mainly comparing half ton trucks, since I already have one, and love it. But heck yes, I love the new F250-F450's (of course I loved the older ones too, but that's a whole other comparison)..... and what the heck, if money were no object, those F650 custom builds are just freaking ridiculously awesome No other brand for those huge customs comes even close to the Ford !
Oh and yes, the Excursions. Always liked those.
One other thing I should mention, in fairness, even though I hate the looks of the 09-10 Ford F150's (at least any of the changes made, from the 04-08's) I know that mechanically, they are still good solid trucks, with some actual improvements. Just wish I could get past the hideous styling.
