I'm on a lease and still have a lot of time left, but thinking about what to get next in about a year.

My new job has other locations and I've sort of considered a transfer to near Cincinatti. I would consider getting something 4x4 in that case.

It'd be a return to winter after a long break, but probably not nearly as bad as it was for me in northern Wisconsin. Oh well, almost a year to think about it.

Don’t get the four pot, the v6 is the way to go, both get horrible gas mileage tho. Wish they had the hybrid engine outta the rav4, like how the tundras have hybrid v6s

That’s rumored in the new gen. Already leaks out there of it being tested in high altitude. Let me see if I can find it.

A new feature my truck has that I've never seen before. ATIS ( Automatic Tire Inflation System ) from a company called Aperia. I have seen this many times on Trailers as they can just draw air from the air brakes, but never saw this before on Truck drive tires.

Pretty neat tech.

What’s your take on one full size tire rather than two at each side?

Went camping to northern WI so longest trip with the new Civic and was an enjoyable drive. Was about a 265 mile trip each way and mostly 75-80mph driving. Still managed an average of 40mpg both ways so I'll take it. Think the car is rated for 38 highway.
