Toyota Tacoma pick up truck. Years ago we were expecting a bad snow.

Was in Lynchburg working my sales territory where I was 1 hour and 45 minutes from home in Blacksburg. Took me over 7 hours to drive home in that snowstorm but that truck got me home. Best vehicle I've ever owned. Favorite vehicle was Dodge Charger, have had two of them. Working my sales territory with the Chargers I got over 30 mpg every week driving over 1,000 miles a week.
