    Hey all, I’ve read similar threads…but I’m going to buy a new truck. looking for some recommendations on these specifics:

    2.5 gen DCLB Taco vs 2.5 gen tundra DC

    I need a daily driver + weekend warrior.
    I have a 4yr old in a forward facing car seat and 1yr old in rear facing seat. I pick up the kids daily. My wife’s highlander is the long-tripper.

    I haul my wheeler in the bed 4-5 times/year. 2 place snowmobile trailer loaded 1-2 times per year. Hit plenty of dirt roads when hunting, fishing, skiing.

    I loved my 2010 Access cab TRD OR dearly. Never had a tundra. Help?

    Practically the same fuel economy but more room and power. What's the dilemma? Tundra is your solution.
