    I have an opportunity to trade my 06 Tacoma DC 4X4 with shell for a 2006 4-Runner Sport. The Tacoma, to me, is an excellent trruck and probably one of the better trucks out there. The only issue is that I do not use the bed of my truck other than during hunting season. Its unused space to me and all I am doing is hauling around something that is not used like it should be. Its only a 2K difference in price. My Taco has 61K and the 4-Runner has 50K miles. Does this sound like a good deal? I'm getting pumped up the more I think about it. The one plus is that the 4-Runner has a factory sunroof which I have wanted forever. Hmmmm tough decision!!!

    pretty much stock, very minor upgrades plus tires
    It sounds like you have made up your mind already. Go with the 4Runner, just my 2 cents.

    I'd keep the Tacoma personally. The bed space will come in handy down the road. I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it...

    4Runner is a better SUV than Tacoma is a truck.

    (wonder why I never get good rep around here?)

    Never been a fan of SUVs, they look like station wagons with bigger wheels.
