    Strictly from a business standpoint, there is no way in hell I’d consider a tundra. The fuel economy is atrocious.

    Bro life isn’t for everyone :D

    You forget you are replying to a guy that bought a 2015 taco to avoid a first year model 2016. I think we all know how that story ended. The Ram 2500 is one of my options...

    Eco-boost gets the best fuel mileage and most towing capacity of any half ton. Ecoboosts from the 1st model year had some teething issues, but now they are rock solid and no more prone to issues than any other engine.
    I can list a lot of reasons not to buy a Tundra. Sheared cam lobes, frame that bends like a pool noodle and can't even support it;s own weight without deflecting. Tailgates that de-laminate and fail causing people standing on them to get hurt. So much so that Toyota had to put out a statement that said don't put more than 200lbs on the tailgate. Rear end suspension issues that would cause a truck going down the highway to just start bouncing, to which Toyota said add weight in the bed.
    In the half ton world, there's a reason Ford is king. I think Silverados are more comfortable, but I won't buy GM products anymore after the bailout. I figure with as much in taxes that I pay and how much they got in my tax money, they should have parked a corvette in my driveway as payback.

    Get the Tundra Double Cab dude!

    The Interior is spacious enough to be comfortable. You have a larger bed with more volume and a lighter truck with a higher payload and towing capacity. The Double Cab looks way better too IMO.

    Congrats! Welcome to the club! You will love it. (I hope the gas bill is a tax write-off also - you will need that) I get my gas paid for by the company, so I absolutely love my Tundra.

    I kept the '15 taco... No way I'd sell it! Gas is written off too LOL. The dealer was begging me to trade in the taco. Offered me $24.5 with 47k on it.
