I am consciously making the decision to stay retro on this.
But anything derived from the Taco is 3 gens too old for me.
I don’t drive enough miles anymore. I don’t care about the reliability at 300,000 miles. I want to be comfortable, I want the interior to be quiet, I want the seats to make thousand mile days possible, and I want to be able to tow my grouse hunting rig anywhere I want to park it.
That is very different from vehicle derived from a taco.
My wife has a replacement hip, two new knees, and arthritic ankles. She loved the Recaro’s, so the rest is a no-brainer.

We don’t get to choose how long we are going to live. We only get to choose what we do with the time presented to us. So, the days of riding in a vehicle that punishes me with every $.50 saved on fuel or at resale, is no longer of any interest.
YMMV of course.


Out there doing it best I can.
