Buying advice - 2014 DBCB PreRunner

wow, not confusing at all!!! haha.... but this brings up another point of confusion.

Why is the rear leg room for access cab vs double cab only 4 inches if the double cab is 13" longer?

That's the plan!

 

rear seats are slanted in the DC.

 

I have the same configuration as the truck you're looking at. The 4cyl leaves a little to be desired on the long hiway trips. Ive found its best not to even use the cruise cause it mainly stays in 3rd gear. The fuel mileage is between 18-20 no matter where i drive. Its perfect for me as my 5 yr old is now in just a booster seat. Overall im very happy with the truck.

 

Your truck is sharp! I was hoping for closer to 22mpg, is your 18-20 because of the larger tires?

 

22mpg highway should be obtainable in the flats. Are you in the hills of cinci?

 

Not sure how firmiliar you are with Cincy but I live about 30 miles north of 75/275. So my commute is fairly flat, with very little stop and go traffic

 

Thanks man. Thats probably some of it. They are 265/65-17. But I could prob get better if i didnt drive like a teenager. (im 40)

 

My 22-23 MPG average was with 245/75/16s.

265/75/16s dropped me to 17-17.5 MPG, driving like an old man. If I drove it like I wasn't half asleep, I'd hit 16s. @REIGNSS

 

Well... good news and bad news

Access cab was a bust. The seats fit, but in the long run I don't think it would be comfortable for anyone after the "newness" wears off.

But the dealer found a couple 2017 DCSB 4cyl 4x2 in my price range (at the top) so... if they can get it transferred I guess I'm getting a 2017 haha

 

Great news! Don't forget to post up pics of your new truck.

 

Hey OP. not sure if you've seen this. but this truck is your price range and area.
