Would you buy it? I think both would make a kickass product judging by their car quality. Whatcha think?

I've never owned a toyota, but I've had an Acura and a Nissan. I had fewer problems with my Acura, so I tend to steer more toward honda, but problems aside, my Nissan ('00 Maxima GLE) has been one kick-*** car with the exception of their coil packs. My Acura ('00 Integra LS, sold last year) never gave me one problem, but I didn't own it as long as the Nissan.

My S10 ZR2 on the other hand... Inasmuch as I would prefer to buy American (or at least, an American brand), the few import vehicles I've owned have owned the domestics I've had. I don't think I'd ever buy an American sportbike... with maybe the exception of a buell as the few people I've known who have had them have had good things to say about them (I still prefer my CBR though).

Yeah, I'm a Toyota owner and I absolutely love it. A friend of mine has a 05 Maxima, that thing hauls some serious *** and is slick as hell. Toyota should make a 2Runner600, I'd be all over that. But I do love my F4i though.

I've had a few Toyotas, I have a Nissan at the moment, which I like to drive. I've had Mazdas as well.
I have a lot of respect for Japanese engineering. so yeah I'd have a look.

I had a Ford Aerostar that I drove to 215K until it was totalled from being rear-ended, go figure eh? and I have an Accord that is rolling 199,000 as we speak....right now im a completely honda guy and i couldnt be happier, although my accord is probably being put to rest in a year or so, well, as far as with me she is. I think id give it a shot, but i sure to trust my hondys.

Toyota would be called the 2 Runner SRD (600cc) and the 2 Runner Limited (1000cc)

Nissan would have be called the 60Z and the 100Z
