which ones are you referring to?

Camry, Sequoia, Highlander, Prius. These cars have troubles with their piston rings, I've seen Prius's with as low as 30,000 miles burning oil because their piston rings were going out. It's a problem a lot of newer Toyota's are having.

tacoma's are pretty solid --- they really haven't changed much in awhile, but they are based on a tried and true drive train. Though for a few years I believe they did have frame problems, can't remember which years those were.

I would've hated to be the poor mechanics that had to replace the frame on those cars.....

Well, a third of Americans don't live in CA, so not duh?

Pithy, I still need to buy a car because I have been lazy. Advice plox.

I settled on a full size pickup, but then I discovered that my garage wasn't long enough by 2 feet (wanted Crew Cab plus 6.5' bed). A smaller truck will fit, but I don't see the point of a dinky, useless bed and I can't not have a crew cab.

So now I am thinking just to get an SUV or maybe a Subaru or something. I want a 4x4 or AWD for shitty conditions (it snows a lot here and I live on a steep hill, so would prefer 4x4 so I can control the car better, but a good AWD would be fine too) to complement the FWD sedan I have that is plenty roomy. Don't really care about being able to haul stuff as I have resigned myself to the fact that I will need to rent a truck for that as I don't want to leave my vehicle outside.

I'd say more than a third of Americans don't live in CA.

the New Chevy Colorados are sweet

Yeah but they won't fit in my garage. Even the smallest one, which I wouldn't want anyway.

I've only got a little over 17' of comfortable length.
