Hey there - I’m in Oly and get up near Mt. Rainier often, but am somewhat new to anything other than Forest Service roads. Can I ask where you went? Where is this shot taken?
Thanks!

I like it. She's been a good choice despite my dislike for the parking lights (they make it look Chinese)... anyway...we have the 2016 Mango Tango Trailhawk with towing package and moon/sun roof. Last one on the lot, couldn't be picky. We researched a little, not as much as we did when we bought the Cadillac SRX, but my husband has a Jeep Wrangler 4door and he's all about the Jeep. Ironically, he tried to get me into one of these or the Grand Cherokee when we ended up buying the Cadillac. I turned the Jeep down back then because of those Chinese lights - I thought they were the headlights. The Mango Tango (Orange) color grabbed me this time and I decided that I would be driving it so I wouldn't see the Chinese lights. She's peppy. We took it off road and it was impressive. If we had rails on it, which we are working on, and maybe better tires it would have probably been even better. It's NOT a family vehicle - there are 4 of us, but the teens drive so they rarely go with us anyway (we take Cadillac for family trips). It's quiet and rides like a dream...almost like you are on a cloud. Tank is not very big so it feels like you go through the gas. I drive to/from work; getting about 15mpg in town. I like the factory tires, they look good and grip good - many don't like them. There's not a lot of optional items for it YET, but it's getting there. As with any vehicle, there are lemons, we are lucky not to have a lemon.

Good luck in the car hunt...of course, I recommend the Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk.

I just got a 2019 Trailhawk minus the squinty lights, Mine isn't Mango Tango but kick you in the ***** red.... ;) I mean its REALLY red!!! I Don't have 500 miles on mine yet in over 2 weeks of owning it. When I can post a bigger pic I will. Also I am guessing this isn't Jeep enough for most Wrangler/Jeep owners as with the other 7 Jeeps I've had before this one, when you pass another Jeep owner on the road and wave they would wave back. This one hasn't got one wave back. I just hope it's as good off-road as it is BRIGHT Red!

What's your emblem on the grill?

It's kind of known as the "TEQ" logo. If you search toyota teq logo you can read about it.

It was the toyota logo from 1927 until the 80s. Without giving you a short lesson in Japanese, the 3 symbols represent a Japanese phonetic characters split up as "to-yo-ta".

Very JDM. I like.

I have a teq oil filler cap on my toyota pickup, and my license plate has TEQ incorporated into it.
