    Is your PRO a daily driver? My decision is that my Taco will be a ever so often weekend driver and my PRO or other would be a daily driver and extended trip family truck. I recall hating driving my fix'd up 99 GT Mustang to the tune of 12-14 mpg, granted I liked reviving that pony all the time. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the input. I don't think I would upgrade my 2nd truck much seeing off on the trail the Taco would be much more fun. My taco with the 33s is actually sipping a bit more now and I knew that when I got them. I foresee driving sensibly with whatever I get. Thanks for the feedback.

    I asked about a Tundra not about a Dodge. I like Dodge vehicles and think the Rebel looks great BUT my uncle is on his 3rd Dodge truck and not one has been trouble free. At the same time this past week I learned of another RAM recall. I don't want to be taking my GD truck to the dealer all the time.

    I saw a non-Pro that I liked and was going to inquire this or next week. It's a TSS Off Road that I could over time "FIX" up :). I do like the color on your Tundra thou.

    Plans have changed since I heard the 2020 4Runner is to have safety and interior improvements. I am waiting till the Fall when those babies come out!!!

    nice those are nice, the limited 4runner is full time 4wd. Same system land cruisers have had for decades, super badass. May be worth looking into the limited and just removing the lame Beverly hills body panels
    Food for thought
