I've added a K&N CAI and it helped alot, especially at higher rpms. I highly recommend the truck. Its very fun to drive. Although it gets about the same mileage as the VX. If you do buy an H3 try to stay away from the 06' model year. the 2006's had the 3.5L at 220HP and customers complained it was a dog with that engine. Not to mention some were known to have cylinder misfires. If you have the cash get an Alpha. Another bonus is that you can fit 35's under the wheel wells with very minimal TB adjust.
    Good info. I am looking at an 06 and it has a 3.5. I will take your advice and avoid.

    My answer: I like the Toyota tacoma club cab short bed 4x4 and it is likely to be my next vehicle.

    If you do get the 06', just get an extended powertrain warranty on it. That will take care of the problem if it happens to arise. There are plenty of people who have not experienced that problem.
