Anyone go from a 2nd gen Tacoma to a Tundra and regret it?

As the title says...

 

I went from a tundra to a Tacoma. Never really got a thrill from the tundra.

 

Subd. I tow a boat frequently with my 6spd taco and I've always had an itch for the power and ease of towing with a tundra.

 

The only reason I'm thinking about changing is the increased towing capacity and extra room inside.

 

Never bought a Tundra for myself, but we have one in our family. I thought about getting one personally after I dumped my 17' Tacoma, but glad I didn't purchase one. For my use I would have not liked it. Mains cons for me is MPG and needing to do a more extensive lift for my use. Otherwise, power and cab space is super nice.

 

There are some good deals right now

 

Yeah the MPG is one con.

 

Owned both at the same time....two different trucks for different uses. If you tow "heavy" and need "space", and can only have one truck, go for the Tundra. If you just need a commuter, light duty towing, then Tacoma. Neither one is mileage champ. Unloaded, my Tundra and Tacoma were within a couple MPG - highway.

 

I did. I got a 2019 Crewmax 4x4 1794 edition. No regrets for me. I need the bigger backseat for the family. Otherwise, I’d still have the taco.

The Tundra is the nicest vehicle I’ve ever had. Only drawback is size and cost to operate.

 

My last job had a tundra and 2015 Tacoma - nobody wanted to drive the tundra even though the interior was nicer. The ride on those concrete highways with expansion joints every half second was brutal. Also mpg's were like 16-17 highway but it was a company car so that didn't matter.

 

I was always itching to get a Tundra for a few years early on when I bought my Tacoma. But as time went on I realized my Tacoma is pretty much the ideal vehicle for 99.9% of my usage (DCLB), and it fits in my garage, is very easy to park, decent gas mileage for a truck, etc. Now, after 10 years of owning my truck, every time see a Tundra, I’m very thankful I have my Tacoma.

oh, and value holds much better for Tacoma’s. I’m confident my 2010 DCLB Prerunner with 70k miles could sell for ~$18-$20k even though I bought it for $26k 10 years ago.

 

Definitely apples to oranges comparison. I am thinking my next truck will be a Tundra just for the room and comfort but I am keeping the Tacoma.
