Any experience with these trucks?
Thanks!

I had a 1998 V6 with an XtraCab and it was a super vehicle! Never failed me once. I towed an 18' Privateer skiff with it, not close to 3K pounds, but the Taco did fine with it. I sold her because I bought a 23' SeaCraft and wanted the V8 to tow with. I bought a Chevy.
My 1999 Chevy Silverado is a piece of crap, but exciting because it seems every time I drive it, something else stops working, always a new adventure. When it dies, and it will, I'll be back to Toyota for good.
