If you are driving well over 100 miles a day, why not go for a far more comfortable car? That’s a lot of time behind the wheel. If I am driving that far to work, it would certainly have to pay very well. Depreciation and fuel, stress in traffic etc would be only a part of the higher income expectation. If it takes a 2 hour drive in traffic to buy a bigger home, only to spend less time in it, it isn’t worth it. My opinion.

Well, the Ford Courier and Chevrolet LUV pickups from the 1970s were hardly considered to be timeless designs back when they were readily available. Now, the few that are still around in decent condition seem to be fetching premium prices, far higher than when they were considered just crappy old mini-pickups. Does this mean they are "classics"? Or are there just a lot of people with disposable income, who don't know any better, who are now buying them?

Uh... have you seen how much vintage 80s Toyota 4X4s are going for these days? One in good cosmetic and mechanical shape is going for as much as $25-$30,000. So yeah... a 2003 Tacoma could easily become a future classic. Heck - I've had offers from people trying to buy my 1996 Tacoma. Part of the reason these are going up in value is because ALL of the new trucks are so enormous and oversized that there's now a growing demand for actual small to medium sized trucks.
