I wanted a toyota or jeep for my first rig, but stocker said toyotas were too expensive and jeeps were too labor intensive, so I got an 84 nissan 4by. I quickly got tired of the utter lack of power and began test driving both nissan and toyota 2wd pickups. The toyotas always owned the nissans power-wise, even the toy I drove with a slipping clutch felt stronger than a nissan of the same year. Another year went by and I finally found a cheap 81 2wd toy, test drove it and realized I had to buy it when it spun both tires without trying while leaving the stop sign. That was in 95, and to date I've owned several road worthy toys and quite a few more parts rigs, usually having 4-6 at a time
