    Is there a noticeable difference in power/acceleration/pepp between the access cab and the double cab 4L V6?

    If it has the same engine, then the double cab would theoretically accelerate at a slower rate because it is heavier (more cab). And even more so with the long bed.

    That said though, I doubt there is any significant difference.

    I test drove both before buying my Double Cab and I didn't notice any difference.

    So you aren't happy with the pepp/acceleration of your truck? I bought mine, so it's a done deal anyways… But I was under the impression that they were pretty powerful. I know it's a truck, i'm not expecting a race car, but I thought that these trucks were far from sluggish.

    The acceleration in my double cab does not disappoint.

    DC LB is nice to have, just wanted to make sure I wasn't sacrificing significan MPG/Power to get it.

    If you could drive them blindfolded (don't try this at home kids:eek:), I doubt that you could detect any difference in acceleration. My double cab puts my boat and passes slower traffic easily.
