    Yep, I think I'll have to do it.
    I need more payload to tow our TT. The 1,200lbs I get out of my Tacoma just isn't enough. And unfortunately, the Tundra would only add 200 lbs, so I think it will be a Ford.
    Hope Toyota comes out with something that increases payload at some point - for those who tow.
    The truck held it's value, that much is for sure. Got a trade-in offer today of $18K (19,500 after taking the tax advantage into consideration).

    The 1500 Chevy would not add more payload than the Tundra - not worth the switch. Would have to go to the 2500, and I think the Chevy's are ugly. :)
