The packaging of modern Toyotas is trashThe entire thing feels like a contradiction. You're climbing up into this taller vehicle, but you have to tilt at a 45 degree angle to avoid hitting your head. It feels like you're getting into a lifted Camaro, high off the ground, but no headroom, I've never experienced another modern SUV/truck like this.
One of the people sitting in the third row was having to sit at an angle, with their head cocked to the side, also touching the roof. I genuinely couldn't believe how bad and uncomfortable this thing was. I'll say this, it definitely made me appreciate and realize just how good our maverick hybrid and explorer were. Those things drive like luxury cars by comparison.
It's really frustrating, at least to me personally, to see sub par vehicles dominating their segments, purely because they can coast on their reputation for what they used to be. For all of their flaws, it seems like the teams who work on Fords, Ford trucks in particular, are putting actual effort in. They have class leading tech, power, and capability, and are generally pretty reliable across the board it would seem. You look at Ford trucks, and you understand why most of their trucks are in high demand.
Then you see brands like Toyota who, pardon my crassness, seem to half-ass a lot of their products, and they just get away with it because their target audience is still living in 1982. I literally knew someone who had one of the newer Tundras, the ones with that problematic v6, tell me my explorer with the virtually indestructible 3.5 duratec was gonna be an unreliable car long term simply because it was a Ford. These people aren't living in reality.Fri, 05 Jul 2024 00:28:27 +0000
