I'd rather get the good old B5.9 straight-6 over this V8 anytime.

What I really want to see is a 4 cylinder turbo diesel in a light truck such as the Tacoma or Ridgeline.
I really don't understand why the hell Toyota doesn't offer either the 2.5L or the 3.0L D-4D engines in the Tacoma, 4Runner and the FJ Cruiser as factory options. My grandpa has a '06 Hilux with the 3.0L and its performance is not bad at all if we compare with a V6 gasser.
