    I have 05 f150 regular cab with 33s 108k my question is
    Should I sell it or trade it for a 2000 tacoma 4x4 ext cab with say 130k?
    Pretty much im asking if the tacoma is really worth it?

    i would say it sounds pretty even, depending on your time frame, if you sell your truck private party and buy private party you may be able to squeeze a little bit more out of it.

    neglect, mostly.
    tough question. i would want some cash, say $1,500 and the tacoma. you do have a newer truck with lower miles, it's not a matter of it being a toyota, its basic depreciation economics. . . also think about the saving you'll be getting on gas. what's the ford got, the 4.6 or 5.4? either way, you'll be "saving" money the second you start driving a taco.
