    I’ve been trying to talk the wife into buying s Slingshot, but with young kids it may not be that practical yet.

    Why would the Taco not be our daily driver?

    Lol thought crossed my mind. We use the wife’s Highlander most often as a family vehicle, but the Taco is my DD. If you can swing paying 40k+ on a vehicle and not use it as a DD, more power to you. I love all the pics of the bikes, atvs, boats, etc.

    Yeah I mean, it's a Toyota truck, not a Ferrari. I don't get why it wouldn't be our DD.

    Fuel economy and commute. Xb fuel economy is that much better.

    The taco is a manual and my wife cannot drive a manual. Also, my mother in law uses my car often and she cannot drive a manual. And she watches our baby. For free.

    Edit - I figure most people know, but the xb is stupid cheap. Ive had it a few years now, up until 18 months ago or so my truck would not have been a good DD. 13mpg interstate, 260k miles and all that.

    Some people like vehicles with better driving dynamics, are a bit faster, are smaller, get better MPG, ride more comfortably, depreciate less with each mile added, etc.

    My 2016 Mazda3 shares DD duties with the truck. The Mazda is faster, handles better and costs less in fuel. It's no rocket ship, but has the bigger 4 cylinder offered and a 6 speed manual.

    The truck is our designated dog vehicle (we have three large dogs that shed). It's auto, so my wife can drive it. She DDs a RAV4, and also drives the truck some. The dogs stay out of the Rav and 3 to keep fur, drool, dirt out of them.
