    I had a 2005 Titan. Took it back to the dealer after it had an exhaust leak.

    It won't help.

    The automatic I get. Going to a heavier truck on the same drivetrain for MPG I don't. And all of this would likely put you deeper in debt on the vehicle.

    Nickel's worth of free advice, stick with the Taco you have.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    As far as bikes go, I got a 09 CRF230 for trail riding, and a 98 Husaberg FE600 for racing, it will do about 120...

    There's a thread somewhere about this. The ecoboosts are just problematic and don't live up to what they are supposed to be doing - increasing ur mpg by switching cylinders.

    Ditto.

    Had a beautiful '03. Loved it, it was paid off.
    We were planning to buy a toy hauler and I needed something that could tow more than 6k.
    Traded it on a Duramax. Wife's career went down the tubes with her disability, job change "gave" me a company car (which cost me $2-3k/mo that I was making in mileage). Duramax went back to the bank, finally got back into a Toyota last December with my '08 Taco base.
