Great vehicle. That would be crazy big for our use 95 percent of the time. It would be mandatory the other 5% of the time. That's the downside to trailer boating. |

The pseudo-macho boys here are jealous that you drive an economical vehicle. |

The real clincher was driving back to the NYC area in a driving snow storm from upstate NY. We were one of the few vehicles still moving in 10+ inches of unplowed snow. It has a very comfortable ride on long trips as well. |

I liked the Tundra until they upsized them about 6 years ago. The Tacoma would be more practical if they would raise the cab roof and windshield about 3 inches |

I can get one that satisfy the wife and i or spring another $5 or 6 k and get something a bit bigger (might be usefull if future grandkids come along) Trouble is, I'd also have to upgrade to a more powerful tow vehicke. I have an appointment tomorrow at 1300 hrs with the local Toyota dealer. They'll appraise my 3 year old car and we'll take the 6 cyl RAV4 out for a test run. This could get expensive ;-) You haven't come close to expensive. Try a $50,000 vessel and a tow vehicle to match and that's nothing in the boating world! |
