And are they as easy to steal?

Most Hyundai and Kia’s are easy to steal even though I don’t know why anyone would want one.

If it has a back seat its not a truck. According to vehicle registrations anyway.

Where can you find a new $40,000 truck? I’ll buy two and sell one.

New Tacoma.

New Tacoma.

Must be a regional thing. Every Toyota dealer around here has an insane market rate adjustment on every vehicle a $42,000 msrp, will actually cost closer to $55,000 out the door. Never mind the fact that they’re a non union manufacturer.

Stop buying new

No problem with buying new if you keep it for at least 10 years. I’ve made out good doing that and I know exactly what has happened to it.

Not if it's turbo. Just about everything is now

If you live where it doesn’t snow RWD 2 wheel drive is doable. Otherwise I would pay the extra for 4wd

a 2WD is all most people need but too many younger drivers never learned how to drive a RWD vehicle.

We get snow every Winter and I have never owned a 4WD. Just get some decent snow tires and throw some weight in the back.

Most of the time it is the 4X4's you see in the ditch after a snow storm. Over confident of 4WD and their driving abilities.

I have had both and there are only a few days a year where the 4WD makes a difference.

They need to learn it makes little difference on ice

I would choose to stay home for a few hours on those days.

He thinks if it happens in Ohio, it’s the same everywhere.

Well, apparently, some places you can still find them, but certainly not here where I am.
