    There is no way a chevy can stand up to a Toyota. .. resale value or performance wise.
    you will never get the diesel to save money it costs more and fuel is more you would need to drive over 3 hundred thousand miles to break even

    Lethbridge Alberta has a few tundras. The city has a policy of rotating between dealerships when they buy fleet vehicles. So the city has almost every brand.

    That sounds so...Canadian :D

    Judging by how many Tacoma owners have been posting threads in the last couple months about trading to Ford/Chevy I think we'll see quite a few picking up Colorados. But by the next generation of Tacoma I'm sure they'll be sick of them and come back :)

    They probably buy whatever brand / dealer who's offering the cheapest prices.

    Toyota's are more expensive.....and unless they can buy them cheap, they don't keep them long enough to reep the benefits of the reliability.

    The more expensive the vehicle is up front - the more $$ it costs us taxpayers.

    Well.... It definitely looks better than the previous model. I realize that isn't saying much but at least it appears to look more like a truck in that picture.

    They wouldn't let me get under it, but from what I was able to see, its a unibody/ladder frame construction, just like the one now.
