I need the hive mind of old men that is RME.
I bought a '22 Tacoma early this year and have just been totally underwhelmed by the thing. I have complained enough that my wife has decided to adopt the poor little taco. That leaves me in a pickle. "Her" car is a '22 Forester and while I like the car and am physically attracted to women, I feel like the wrong gender of person attracted to women to drive a Subaru wagon. So I'm on the hunt for a car/truck/vehicle as my daily to replace the Subaru.
We currently have the LJ which is awesome but not much of a daily and my F350 that is getting a little long in the tooth and my lovely wife will have her pile of Toyota failure.
My daily needs to haul MTB's and me. I am looking at a couple scenarios.
1) Buy a fast/fun car, Mustang, Camaro, 370Z, WRX something fun. I've always had utility vehicle and always wanted a fast car. I have 3 other cars that are 4wd so snow is not really a concern. I have some jean shorts and am not opposed to embracing my middle aged crisis.
B) Sell the F350 and buy a newish F150 to serve as daily and towing duty. I'm not sure about this as my CCLB is pretty nice when I need it for hauling but the creature comforts of a new F150 far outweigh the 2006 Super duty ride and noise. My only apprehension is that I have been driving small trucks/SUV's for a long time and don't know how much I'll like driving a full size pickup all the time.
iii) Keep the Subi, slap on a rainbow/coexist sticker and hide among the weirdo's while getting 28mpg in comfort. It's a great car, just makes me feel like I should sit down to pee if I have to call it MY car.
What would you all do? Are they any cars that you guys are oogling that would be a good DD? Nothing really gets me excited looking at what is listed.

1999 Corvette checked off a lot of "fun" criteria boxes for me, at a lower price than many other fun cars.
