A bit bigger

So as we are moving house, we swapped the Yaris with my GF's brother's Hilux. Still in the Toyota family, at least!

Man I hate driving big cars OK, the high driving position gives a nice vantage point, and there's some nice tech toys to play with (there's a display between the gauges and steering wheel controls with a pretty cool fuel economy display among other things). But, it just feels weird to drive such a long and wide vehicle...

Oh and it's the "PreRunner" version, with heavier-duty suspension... And I thought my coilovers were stiff, this is ridiculous!

Anyway rant over, should get back to our diminutive daily driver shortly.. Problem is, future B-I-L is developing quite a liking to the Yaris, will we ever get it back?

Nice ride! We don't get the Hilux over here, but I love my Toyota trucks. Enjoy!
