Nice m8. Welcome to the 2nd gen club. Check out nastyz28 dot com for pretty much everything you would even need to know about 2nd gens

Get the Ram.

The 2.7 Ecoboost Ford is fucking amazing for a DD truck, but the aluminum body at current means body repairs are obscenely expensive. There aren't many body shops that work aluminum and they make you pay through the nose for it.

Okay, I don't tow anything ever and the most I haul is tools and my military gear plus sometimes furniture and shit. How's those 6 cylinder tacomas?

A stock 350 with stock converter+trans with a beefy rear is pretty good user

Maybe Toyota's fixed the problem where the frames rust out to fuck after a few years in this generation. Maybe they haven't. I wouldn't make a $20,000+ bet on it, personally

Ooh geez I had never heard of that. One of my coworkers bought a new tacoma last year and he supposedly did mountains of research before buying (wife was pregnant and he wanted to be abso fucking lutely sure it was the best truck)

>mountains of research before buying

I suspect his 'research' was "hey that looks cool" and then went and read 100 pages of taco forum posts where taco owners say "yeah i like this truck i bought" to each other, and decided this was incontrovertible evidence that the Tacoma is the best possible option.

Yeah man, nearly every Tacoma rusts out and collapses, them being ubiquitous and the residual value being vastly ahead of any other pickup is all just a sham propped up by Tacoma forum posters. Listen to the real experts here on Veeky Forums.

that isn't a pedestrian safe design. you're a monster just for driving one

I'm 6'4 and 255lbs I was a monster before I ever set foot in it
