Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
Sorry...was on my soapbox. Short version: Previously always bought American made vehicles even when I knew more maintenance, lower quality product, shorter service life, etc. Thought this was patriotic. Later learned unions + DNC = simpatico. Now own 0 "American" made vehicles.
WRT Japan being champion of gun rights, I loath foreign enemies much less than domestic...YMMV.
Turbo 4cyl with a 7 speed manual sounds interesting, but I'm not keen on testing the sway bar disconnect and electronic off road controls.

Beware of my temper, and the dog that I've found...
Not unlike the gun world, it’s not about reality, it’s about sales. Look at these threads alone where people say things like “yeah, I’d buy it, but it doesn’t have the 5.0”. So things like locking diffs and unlocking sway bars are useless for the kinds of driving that 99.9% of the buyers of these things are actually going to do, but you have to provide some of that shit just so he can feel gooder about it on his drive in to the office or to pick up the kids at government school.
