Mark Hinkle,

Many thanks for the feedback.  So you are one of the ~ 12% that DO get 
off road!

Thanks for your reply.  Not everything in my rants is 100% correct, some 
is off.
Prize fighters, and formal debate teams, spar for a reason - to sharpen 
their skills,
learn about their mistakes, and know their strengths, and weaknesses.

Thanks again for your reply - the only one I got.  I suppose I am 
filtered by
all the other folks. ;-)

I am looking for another vehicle.

I am considering a Toyota Tacoma, with a camper top thing, for my ham 
radio work.
I really do not need 4 wheel drive.  I would use it occasionally, but I 
doubt it would be worth
the maintenance costs - for my use.

The Forerunner looks OK, but I think the Tacoma actually has more usable 
room for
my purposes (radio gear).  I believe the Tacoma is less expensive as well.

I would appreciate any info you have on these vehicles.

It is a lot of money to invest.

Cheers,

-Glenn
