Topic: I need a new commuter, vote on what gen I should buy

[snowplow]

do I want to get a 1st gen or 2nd gen straight axle or 3rd gen IFS. Also 22r or 22re or V6. Are the performance bennies worth the trouble of EFI for a daily driver? Is the V6 (never had one) a @#$% to work on? Help me figure this one out...

v6 trucks are a nightmare  to work on,  i vote  second gen solid  front

i think the 1st gens look sick

The V6 is more expensive to build & the early V6 engine problems. If your 6ft you will want at least 2nd or 3rd gen extra cab or 4Runner. There is at more leg room.

Is the performance gain from the efi worth how hard it is to work on? (daily driver) thanks all

[Rockcrawlintoy]

i hardly have to work on mine. maintenance isn't  any harder due to the efi in my opinion

The efi is harder to work on that a carbed, I thought it was the opposite.
