Sweet, I'm in Altamont... I used to do the voluntary neighborhood watch patrols out here working with the sheriff's department before I started working long hours.

Sounds about right, For the X-Runner Toyota knew of it's downfalls and offered TRD aftermarket support to make it a "sports truck"... Too slow? They have a intake, exhaust and supercharger you can buy, Crappy shifter? They have a short shifter, Crappy brakes? they have a BBK.
The several times I had to panic brake to avoid running a red light or stop sign... Slam on brake pedal- It slows down NOT STOPPING- Not going to make it, not going to make it, not going to make it! f*ck it were running it. On the test drive in the Z, I got to the first stop sign and I just tapped the pedal and felt like an anchor fell from the bottom of the car. The sales lady even said "WHOA, BRAKES WORK!"
Thanks for the welcome everyone!
