Just wondering if the Toyota X-Runner is out? I was driving by West Covina area and I saw a Blue Toyota X-Runner driving through the streets. Same blue color that's been in pictures and the auto shows.

It's been out for a while now. Just saw a blue one, too, today.

Oh okay, it was my first time seeing it today in person. The truck looks weird, its like missing something. Needs bigger tires or something.

I think the front end just looks too big for the rest of the truck. A bit skinny, too, but it is a small truck.

My dealerships has got one in and it was sold in a matter of days. I don't think that our region is getting too many of them.

x runner is a great performance truck.
sad that the truck dept has more cajonies than any others.

I've had a chance to drive the 6spd manual all night flogging it on onramp after onramp. It handles remarkably like a sports car and not like a truck at all. I mean it seriously handles very well. I wouldn't match it up against other trucks in the handling dept, i'd match it up against other rwd cars on the market. Even at the limits it was super controllable

the only time it ever felt like a truck was parking it.

it had sufficient power to 80ish mph, but after that I think aero dynamics take over.

the 255's from the factory help out with handling too. The engine bay is begging for a tt set up with that massive opening in the grille for a huge intercooler.

What about when shifting and pressing on the clutch?
