    i have the long bed and 4 door. its long as HELL. but not a biggy. i'd go back and buy a an extented car in stead of access cab because mose of the time you don't have more that hourself and a friend....unless he is having a family or tons of friends

    Resale is definitely stronger with the 4dr trucks. While I really like the access cabs, they have weaker resale (obvious from this poll).

    Well, this thread is a old revival, Russel already bought a Tacoma. He got a dark blue DC SB TRD off road 4x4 6 speed with 6" Fabtech and bilstein 5100's @ 1.75 and 35x12.50x17 Toyo MTs. Its also got a canopy on it. I'll try and find a pic of it....

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    Extended cab looks better and unless he is gonna be hauling a bunch of people he does not need the 4 doors all they would be is extra weight and lower MPG's for no reason. If he goes with a double cab make sure he gets the long bed, they look better and serve more function, you can haul things in them and close the tailgate! Sorry but I hate the shortbeds, no offense anyone

    I have an access cab and I love it. I think it looks the best, and I like the longer bed without having the super long wheelbase of a DCLB. But if he carries passengers often, I would definitely go with a dc. The backseat in the access cab ends up getting used more for storage than seating in my truck.
