They're nice enough for a street truck, but it's going to be a thirsty SOB. h:

Sporty Suspension, mostly. Supposedly it handles amazingly for a truck.

lowered trucks are lamesauce garbage.

That aside, in terms of actual off-road capability, and looks, IMO, the '04 taco>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> '06 taco. First off, its too big, if you get the 4-door or the extended cab, its got a rediculously long wheelbase. Its also got worse ground clearance and suspension articulation as far as I can tell.

Offered in Red, Black, and Blue. No optional TRD supercharger yet. I thought this statement was pretty cool:

"Toyota says it used the Nissan 350Z as a benchmark for the X-Runner’s handling performance. “I wanted it to out-perform not only all competitive sport trucks but also many sports cars,” said Yuichiro Obu, chief engineer on the Tacoma project at the vehicle’s introduction to the press last year. “During extensive testing, the X-Runner’s road-holding ability was measured in excess of 0.9g, which is better than the Z.”"
