Thinking about getting a 2021 V8 Tundra.

A year ago when I started shopping for my Taco my plan was to sell my previous 4x4 and my current tow rig and replace both with a Tundra. For me though I couldn't get past how dated the interior was; to me it felt about ten years out of date whereas the interior in my Taco feels very modern (to be fair I have the Tech package in my Taco) plus the Tundra is too large to take on many of the trails I like to run without risking some body damage.

In the end I decided to replace my previous 4x4 with my Taco, which seems to do fine on the trails I like to run and put a couple of grand into my tow rig (Crew Cab Silverado) to keep it around for a little longer. If I like the next generation Tundra then I may sell my Taco and Silverado and get one after they've been out for a year or two. Time will tell.

 

I would of bought another tundra after have a gen1 for 19 years, but they've gotten too dam big while the taco grew bigger also. It was a no brainer for me, but i do still miss the wider tundra bed at times, not to mention its plush ride.

 

I had a 17 Tundra now a 20 Taco, don't be concerned about fuel consumption they aren't much different.

 

Had my 03 Tundra (4.7) for 16 years and absolutely loved it. It was a beast of a truck. Toyota bought it back from me after frame rust issues were found about a year (or 2) ago. But if they made the access cab with the step side bed again, I would trade in the Taco in a heart beat. Just to be clear, I love the Taco also!

 

Do it and put the Procharger on it and you’ll be pushing 550hp. Vroom vroom!!!

 

I've found after 1 1/2 years with the Tundra it depends on how you use the truck. On the interstate, 75-85 mph, I get about the same mpg. City driving the Tacoma is better and 55-65 mph the Tacoma is much better. A headwind also really crushed the mpg on my Tacoma, moreso than the Tundra.

 

Yup! Just filled up from a half tank in my Tacoma and it was $30 plus dollars. Dash says I am doing 22 MPG but who knows if that is legit. Either way I am sure with the poor gas mileage of the Tundra I would being doing much worse!! Decisions decisions while I hit my head! LOL

 

Save your head
Buy a tundra

 

They boogie with superchargers, even the stock TRD makes it faster than some sports cars.

 

LOL. I'll have to pay out almost $18K difference in cash to make the deal happen out the door with a trade in value of $23.5K for my Tacoma.

 

Isn't your head worth it?

 

Got some extra cash?? Building a new custom home and wife thinks I am nutsssss.

 

I got 30k trade in for my 2015 limited Tacoma... sticker new was 37....

6 years old, still commanding premium value- 2015 taco the last of the 4.0L V6

will most likely be similar when the new tundra is out

 

That's odd, my wife has a mint 2015 Taco with the 4.0 and 30k miles. Was not offered a trade anywhere near what you got anywhere that I have shopped. Glad you got good $!

 

I do . But your head isn’t worth it to me

 

4x4? Double cab? Here it is for sale... they will sell it quick, traded it in Saturday

Got rid of my Taco for a 2021 Tundra. Couldn’t be happier.

 

I saw a video a while back of a tundra beating a challenger on a drag strip lol

 

Looks beautiful.
