It's the former, a toyota pickup with what i consider a decent looking body kit that is both fairly quick and fairly good-handling. That 4.0 motor is one of my favorite motors i havent owned yet. Comparing it to an s-10 xtreme would be like comparing a 2006 SRT-10 pickup to a 1994 5.8L Lightning, similar in concept and worlds apart in execution and performance.

I only thought of that because every day on my commute I seem to see the same guy with his bright-yellow Xtreme pickup with plate "2XTREME" and some gothic-print decal on the back of the cab that says "2 XTREME 4 U" or something like that.

Everytime I see it, I wonder to my self if that guy knows what a berkeleying dipE36 M3 he looks like in what is basically a crappy pickup with a body kit.

This.

Think less "Redneck rice mobile" and more "Toyota's 350z competitor."

The motor is a BEAST, too. Gets obnoxiously fast in a hurry with a TRD supercharger.
