    I'm closer to 60 than 40 and I'm too old to have any interest in heavy metal groups. And I am not into all the off-roading stuff.

    I'm from the old school on that. When you get to where the dirt road ends, a real man packs his gear and starts walking.

    I'm 69 and drive a '11 Taco Access cab.

    I drove a '54 Dodge V8 pickup to high school (it was the fastest vehicle around). Went back to pickups in '87 when I bought my first of 5 Nissan Hardbody/Frontiers. Made the switch to Toyota this time.

    My wife drives a Camry, but my "other car" is a 350Z.

    I should have been more specific, I meant a YOUNG real man. At 53, I am more likely to ask some of them fellers with their ATVs if they would go fetch my deer for me.

    First car was a 61 Chevy Impala coupe - 283 w/the slip & slide power glide. Girls loved the car. Been driving P/U's since 85. had Fords, Chevy's and a Ram. Then I got my Tacoma. Best one yet!
    The wife prefers her ride over mine. Don't know why???:notsure:
