    VERY true, but keep in mind you'll probably be paying at least 30% more in gas alone... that can definitely add up.. Ultimately it's up to you.. if you need a full-sized truck and will use the truck to it's full potential, then by all means, get the tundra.
    Most, if not all taco owners knew what they wanted/needed before they bought their tacomas (let me know if i'm wrong here guys), and after adding it all up, the tacoma was the perfect truck for what they need. For me personally, it's actually more than i need, cause i know i'll probably never haul 6500 lbs of anything.

    That's no incentive. Hell, I wouldn't trade even for one. If I wanted one I'da bought one instead of the Tacoma. Don't, didn't, won't.

    Based on Toyota's current situation, I assumed they would be willing to deal no matter what. I actually traded my 2008 Tundra 5.7 4x4 double cab for a new 2010 Tacoma Double Cab 4x4 TRD Sport Long Bed.

    I loved the Tundra. The 5.7 was a sweet motor. But I can easily say, the Tacoma is a much more enjoyable truck (for me anyway). I am trilled with my decision to move to the Tacoma. They gave me a great deal that made it an even easier choice.

    Yes I would trade because I need a bigger truck for my trailer. However if I had the $$$ the Tacoma would become a trailer queen and the Tundra would pull it to the trails :D

    I bought a little Toyota stock at $75 when all the BS about Toyota was in the media, because I thought that it was mostly hype and that Toyota would respond by making quality even better from here on out.

    Vid on tundra comparison. Tundra isn't very attractive and it has some flaws the competition does not. Sure it's got power, but that's not everything and why would we buy one if we didn't need the fullsize, er, size?

    Nope. If I wanted to stay in a full size, I would not have gotten rid of my F150 in the first place. It was paid for, and keeping it would not have resulted in me going through FIVE trucks over the last couple of years.

    With the incentives that were being offered in Houston at the time i purchaced my Taco... I could have gotten a Tundra fully loaded (4.6) for 2k cheaper... But i thought the Tacoma suited me better :cool:
