b/c those trucks are not $40+g's
and if I was looking for trucks in that price range it would not be a ford.

Thats a completely different class of truck. Im sure if someone is in the market for a tacoma or frontier, they arent gonna be in the market for a fullsize.
b/c those trucks are not $40+g's
and if I was looking for trucks in that price range it would not be a ford.
they dont cost that much, they are about 20-30k..

yea if I was in it for a full size it be either a chevy or dodge. Im not a fan of Ford trucks and the Tundra doesnt impress me. The beds on the Titan looks funky to me.

The new tacomas are great trucks, we have an 06 with 30k on it now and absolutely love it! The 4.0 VVTi V6 is a fairly stout engine in that truck as well.

when i sold toyota couple months back, the Tacoma was the only thing out their whole inventory i'd purchase. Even compared to a Tundra (p.o.s.), i love light Toyota trucks!

Toyota will always have a higher resale value. Nissan truck have been in the ****ter since they stopped making the hard body "pickup." If it were down to full size, you cannot beat a Dodge 2500-3500, hell chevy cant. New chevy trucks are UGLY. The fords are a good looking truck, but they need to get the motor/tranny combination worked out.
What is really funny is the full size diesels are going to pwn you in gas milage.

the tacoma TRD with the 6 speed was an awesome machine and id recommend it more than any other truck, it was the fastest and best handling thin at the dealer

the frontier is cheaper and has a more powerful engine, but my buddy has a new tacoma and its pretty powerful too, idk i like both, even though im a Nissan guy, i would probably choose the taco. i need to test drive a frontier to see what it like.

Having had a 2001 Tacoma, it gets my votes.
It's probably one of my previous vehicles that I miss the most. :(

full size diesels are not 20-30k my dads 08 2500 stickered at 53k. if its 20-30k its used and/or a work truck(xlt). the lariats are expensive
i vote tacoma all the way.

I know someone with a frontier and it has been trouble-free.
If you have experience, post. Otherwise stop saying "Tacoma!" because you think the commercials are cool or because you "think" they're cool. That shit doesn't count.

ok here goes:
my aunt has a tacoma and has over 200k miles on it and hasnt had a bit of trouble out of it.
my mom has a xterra (frontier frame,drivetrain,front end,etc) with 130k mileson it. my dad is a mechanic and regularly maintains and has already needed a 2 water pumps, new a/c compressor,alternator, battery and the rack makes noise at hwy speed.

I have a 06 Xterra Offroad, and my brother has a 08 Tacoma TRD. He has gotten stuck a few times already, where as I have yet to get stuck a single time. If I get in a tight spot, I flip the switch to my electronic locking diff and drive right through. The taco can't keep up with the xterra on road or offroad. My brother's truck gets stuck in wet grass. The frontier and xterra have about 20hp more than the tacoma. All in all, I think the tacoma looks better, but the nissan is a better performer on road and off road. My Xterra has 40k miles on it and still runs like new. I had considered trading my xterra in on a new frontier, but after my brother got his, I've changed my mind. I think the next thing I will get is either a frontier 4x4 or the new H3T. The H3T with the V8 has more power, but is only a 4 speed auto, weighs more, and gets worse fuel economy...

Yeah dude... good for you. I like those roof rail things you added on. How dark are your windows because it looks like your front one is tinted too.
I say get a Tacoma. I've owned a 93 2wd shortbed pickup, a 07 Tundra 4x4, a 08 4runner 2wd, and I just traded that in on a new 08 Tundra... but if I wasn't such a big dude or have as much to tow on occasion, I would have gotten a Tacoma.
I test drove a bunch, but for me I weighed price vs. mileage vs. comfort and ended up with a crew max tundra. I only get maybe 2 mpg less that the Tacoma I wanted, so for me, I felt good about it.
If you don't have something to trade in, now's the time to get a great deal on a truck. I'd email a bunch of dealerships and let them throw prices at you, and don't be afraid to tell them "blah blah dealership in Marietta, or Newnan, or wherever is giving me a lot better price...get it lower and then I'll come by to drive it"
Hope that helps.
