    I am starting a lawn care company in CT and have been looking for a truck for the past month. Towing would be no problem with the tacoma, but was wondering about plowing. I have found a few videos online with tacoma plowing. I was wondering if anybody uses their tacoma as a work truck for a similar situation. I would go Tundra, but out of my price range.

    there was another thread on this recently. you may find it if you search.

    the basics:
    some say Tacoma too small
    some say Tacoma no problem
    everyone agrees Tundra/full size is best for plowing
    so, you know, forums...
