    It really is a pretty sweet ride. When she said she wanted a Rav-4 I immediately thought this...

    Probably the best move. Keep miles off the truck and it would be waaaay cheaper. My GF is getting like 34 mpg! Most likely be about 28 for me

    Take the Tacoma to see what sort of fuel mileage you’re getting. Also a nice way to break the gears in

    I’m getting a ton of whine out of the gears when coasting at about 55 mph. I thought it was just break in but I’ve got 450 miles on them so idk. Any suggestions?

    Both are around 2500 miles at this point. Both would be alright to drive across country but, I gotta decide between gas mileage or fun mileage

    Interesting decision. Whatever floats your boat.

    All I know is, I can afford a Raptor but would rather own multiple vehicles rather than a 70k + truck. I wouldn't even buy a new Taco bc racecar and traveling is more my style. Building up a 98 M3 right now. ALL the new trucks are overpriced by about 10k IMO.

    Man, a Raptor is my dream truck. I just sold my 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara (was fairly built, but on a budget) and bought a brand new to me used 2018 Toyota Tacoma Sport DCSB 4x4 and I am in the planning stages. Maybe in a couple years when I get back stateside I will be able to find a decent used Raptor, but honestly after all the nay Sayers on this thread it's got me thinking...

    OP, your truck looks AMAZING already. Great work, and I love this thread. Haha

    But why though? Why would you get rid of that truck for a Tacoma? Don't get me wrong, my Tacoma is super nice, and it's loaded out with everything ,but I am genuinely curious as to why you'd get rid of your Chevrolet for a Tacoma though... I love that truck! Lol
