I have the 2023 ZR2 and it rubbed from factory bought it with 200 miles on the odometer, took it in and although its 33in vs the bison 35in tires the right side was rubbing on the brake line! they had to order and replace the whole right side brake line! unbelievable. but all is good now and I am loving my truck. No regrets- No more rubbing - also only ever rubbed when fully tilted clockwise.

No rub at full lock in the front but really close when fully stuffed off-road in the rear. Still extremely happy with the truck, and love seeing these upgrades in the midsize segment.

Only the Canyon/Colorado get rear vents for passengers. Only the Tacoma and Canyon can equip a moonroof in their top trims (Colorado ZR2 Bison AEV can't have one, and none of the Ranger trims come with a moonroof). On their configurators in top trim, the Ranger Raptor seems like the value option somehow at ~$60k. The Chevy was ~$63k, and the GMC at a whopping ~$73k. No clue on Toyotas pricing as the top trims aren't live on their site yet. Offroad I'm sure all of them will be super impressive. I hate the big tire in the bed of the Chevy/GMC. Does the 34.5" tire not fit underneath?

You forget that the shocks on the seats were tested extensively on Baja racing trucks first. 2 different models. It's not a gimmick. It's also weight-based, so more precise than any bump stops are going to be. Meanwhile, on the TRD Pro, you get 3-way adjustible Fox racing shocks, which are tried and true. On the Trailhunter, you get even better OME shocks which can take much more weight reliably.

Kinda defeats the momentum you need to get you up a hill or out of a mudhole...Plus the taco was about $6k more expensive. So I bought a new 2020 Colorado WT. (V6).$31k OTD 30k miles on it now...
