Thanks for the help guys, I surely have a lot to think about. The 7.3 is starting to get worn and it's prime time to sell here in Chicago is now - right before winter. Its overkill for what I do, but for some reason I love the truck. I think I would love a Tacoma the same, but some very valid...
I know the Tacoma won't tow nearly as well as the F250. What I really want to know is if it's going to tear the truck up. I know how to properly take care of a vehicle, will monitor trans temps real time while towing just as in my F250 - but mechanical parts can only stand up to so much.

Id love to get an econo box - but budget and space limitations prevent me from having a DD and Tow rig. I'm looking to combine...
Hi All,
I'm currently thinking of selling my 99' F250 w/ 7.3 Diesel to buy a 2nd Gen Tacoma Double Cab Long Bed. I bought the F250 on a whim as a tow rig and have loved it - but I recently lost my company car and need to condense daily driver duties and towing duties into one vehicle. Last...
I heard the ride quality on the road isn't that great with the MTs. I do my fair share of time in the dirt, but also spend a lot of time on the interstate.
I am now interested in running these wheels on my PSD, but I'm interested to know what 16.5 tires in a 37" are available and which have the best performance both on and off the road.
