^ agree 100%. Buddy of mine bought the newer gen 4Runner with the V6 and it's gutless. My wife has an '09 4Runner 4.7, last year they put a V8 in them and we'll never sell it ... we get approached very frequently with inquiries about whether we'll sell it the answer is always the same: never.

I had a 1Gen Tundra with the 4.7L for many years and loved it. It was stone cold reliable and aside from routine maintenance never had to do anything to it in all the years I drove it. I had the Access Cab and needed more backseat room for a long legged teenage daughter - thought long, long time about the 4D 1Gen Tundra but ultimately bought a '16 Tundra with the 5.7L instead. I checked with a local shop that works on nothing but Toyota first. They said the 4.7 is a very slightly better engine than the 5.7 by a gnats arse but the difference isn't enough that most people would notice; they said if everything checks out buy it and I did. I was certain that I would miss my 1Gen and felt bad for selling it, but I really love my 5.7 better than any truck I've ever owned.

I spend a lot of time in Alberta for work and have several friends there and always enjoy my trips there. They may be "conservative" by Canadian standards but the parallel to Denver and Minneapolis is an apt comparison. Ontario and Quebec regard them as a backward cowtowns although still happy to take advantage of their natural resources. And yes they still love "muh free healthcare" and other viewpoints that would make them blue states.

re: The 2012 “Red Dawn” remake

Posted by Don Quixote on 12/24/25 at 10:27 am to Tiger1242

the original is such a classic that I intentionally won't watch the remake.

in fact that's broadly a rule I follow for a lot of movies, very rarely does a remake hold up to the original

Ernst Lubitsch, IYKYK - and the Hanks movie You've Got Mail was a pale remake

My last car payment was a LOT more than that, but then again I only had one payment and then I was done so there's that.

re: Could Trump be getting ready to give Snowden a full pardon?

Posted by Don Quixote on 12/23/25 at 9:13 am to Placekicker

While I firmly believe that Snowden should be pardoned, he's probably better off living the remainder of his life outside the country for his own safety
