Coming back from a Tundra

i have been in a tundra for two years now. I recently wrecked it and have been driving my other truck a Chevy. Now I’m thing about a new 18 Tacoma. Decisions decisions

 

Test drive, test drive and test drive

 

Why not another tundra??

 

Just seem to remember how much fun my last Tacoma was. I like the power of the tundra but can go more places with the smaller truck

 

Good points. Best part is youre not in a hurry so the ball is in your court.

 

That would be the concern, many folks complain about the lack of power in the new tacos. I have a manual and think it's fine, but I came from a 4 cylinder taco.

 

I think it is a win either way. Both are good trucks, but it depends on your needs. I drove full size trucks from the 1970's until 2007 when I bought a Tacoma. I always knew they were good trucks, but were simply too small for my needs. By 2007 my kids were grown and out of the house so a smaller truck made sense. I have absolutely no regrets. But 11 years later life has changed again. I now have 3 grandkids and a 4th due in a couple of weeks and we have plans for a bigger travel trailer that the Tacoma won't handle. So I'm back to a full size again. But kept the Tacoma. It is perfect for my wife for her gardening and crafts. She isn't comfortable in a full size but loves driving a truck. Look carefully at your needs and try to plan ahead for the next 10 years or so. Don't buy a truck that fits now, but will be too small 4-5 years down the road.

 

Ill sell you my '17 Tacoma so I can get into a Tundra!!

 

My 15 taco had enough power for me. At the time I went with a tundra to pull a 16 foot construction trailer. My trailer now is a 6x10 so I think I should be fine

 

Good advice thank you

 

It will feel different from the 2015, make sure you get an extended or overnight test drive

 

If not in a hurry just wait a year or two for the new Tundra or a Tacoma refresh
