No problem man. Is 2.92 for regular gas? That is around what I pay for Premium in my daily driver.

You're asking some biased people here. I'm a gonna tell ya Toyota all the way! The extra power of the 6 is nice but parts are not as cheap and abundant as the 'ol 4 cyl. Better gas mileage too, of course. Remember these trucks are built for dependability first with power as a piddly afterthought. Buy one, and like Wa said, you will not regret it!
Well, there is nothing really wrong with any of these models. I would stay away from the Tahoes/Chevies if you want to go 4wheeling much in them. A Cherokee is a good wheeler, although it is a unibody rig (no frame, the body IS the frame), the Cherokee does lack front axle strength, but if you keep an open front axle and tires smaller than 35" tall you can run the stock front axle with lower gears. A Toyota would be great! A truck or 4runner would be nice. Try to stay away from the 3VZE (3.0 V6), because it does not like head gaskets or valve cover gaskets. The 22re (4cyl) is a great motor, and only has about 5 horsepower less, plus better gas mileage (I'm not sure how high gas prices are in Mexico, so this may be a big deal, or not so bad).In my opinion, if you want to seat 5, get a 4runner, unless you really like the Cherokee (XJ). If you don't need the 5 seats, get a Toyota pickup with the 4cyl. You won't regret it.

I was talking with my wife and she wants a jeep, but if we go for the jeep, for sure will be 6 cyls.
Gee DirToyBoy, thanks for that tip! I just had in mind lots of horsepower to climb whatever and places with deep mud.Red, thanks to you too, I was talking with my wife and she wants a jeep, but if we go for the jeep, for sure will be 6 cyls. But a toyota truck is definitely deep inside of my mind.and thanks all of you for your comments!.
Jeep's are OK, if you just want to be just another one of the pack....... The Borg will assimilate you.
Jeeps around here are not so common, and theres a lot of Toyota's. But, thinkin in repair-modification costs, toyotas are way cheap compared to jeeps.
Where do you live? Overseas?
Northeast of Mexico, in Sonora, border with Arizona. As red said, land of nissans, but toyota are really new here, and Im not gonna buy a new one to have fun crawling or hill-climbing.
shouldnt be too hard to find a rig to wheel, but would be a lot cheaper to buy one here in the US than in mexico (usually)
