![]() I used to have the Tacoma, and had no problems pulling the same as what you're talking. Wouldn't really want to do it all the time, but uphills... no problem. The Tundra will pull that all day.
What kind of truck are you pulling that's only 3000 lbs? My El Camino is 3400 lbs... and for sure smaller than a truck. So I guess I pulled more than that with the Tacoma. I agree, the Toyota's do hold their value, which sucks for the buyer, but is great for the owner... come time to sell it, you'll get more back than you would with the other 3.

![]() Nice ride Parker... how much time you have into that thing? 3000lbs still sounds light though... no?

![]() 3000 lbs was a rough guess. I've cut a bunch of metal out and added a bunch so I'm not sure what it comes in at these days. I believe stock it's 3,200 lbs

![]() It's been off the road since 2005, but total work time would be around a years worth of weekends. My biggest hurdle in getting it completed, it's at a friend of mines place which is about 110 km from my place through the city so everytime I work on it I spend 3 hours commuting back and forth. There is a show in Lethbridge called SideShow, it's tagging along with the StreetWheels show this coming year in July. I'm hoping to be able to bring it this year. I doubt it will be under it's own power but it should be in one peice at least! ![]()

I saw one at the dealship yesterday. Can't say I was a big fan, I didn't like the wide body look in person. It just didn't look right, somthing was misssing and I couldn't put my finger on it.

![]() What a nice truck! Too bad I would never own another Ford vehicle as long as I live.
Buy a Toyota and it will never let you down. Quote:
