[@JoshuaDarius-bm7nc]

A lot of people nowadays simply don't have cars, at least in my world. If you want a big light duty vehicle/truck, it might as well be one with more than just a single cab bench seat that seats three in claustrophobia. Especially because all the naysayers of light duty truck like vehicles have all gone away specifically because of the undeniable success of the Highlander and the pilot. Tacomas are great, but I am a computer technician and a gamer, not a rock crawler, but I also like wondering off into the woods so I can't get a minivan.

Rubber timing belt means money saved by the manufacturer which costs us more money down the road, if you replace it at the intervals called for it, if you keep it long enough. The metal timing chains have to be replaced but not as often.

Rubber timing belts are notably quieter as well.

He finally gave up and bought a Lexus...🤣🤣🤣

Hondas probably drive better than Toyota's, but I will take Toyota over Honda everytime, because they are little more reliable and lower maintenance cost

Can you just toss out rubber belt and install a timing chain?
