I have read that the 10spd needs a couple thousand miles to basically learn how to transmission.
I agree, the view is nice, it looks like it has a high beltline on the outside but didn't really feel like it on the inside.
Oddly, I sat in a new '150 and I found it kind of claustrophobic. Huge dash, low windshield, blocky hood... and it seemed like they had the mirror stuck in the middle of the windshield. It was like trying to see out of a tank.
Toyota was doing a test drive thing there, I wish Ford was too.
It was stinking cold, I thought about seeing if I could "test drive" the Tacoma to where we parked...
