    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    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...

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    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.

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    Ive realized that I only tow 25-30 days out of the year - what about the other 325-330 days of the year? Am I supposed to just suck it up and drive my behemoth tow rig every where? I would if I could as I love the truck. It's never let me down. But 16qt synthetic oil changes every 5k miles...

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    Thanks for the info - this is what I was looking for. As far as mileage goes, I'm not to worried about it. You have a good point about the drive being more relaxed, but at 285k miles on it, I'm never that relaxed - any noise has me spooked. Usually we go to Gingerman, Grattan, Mid-Ohio, Road...

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    I've got one already. Its not that I tow that often (two weekends a month usually) - but they aren't close trips. That's the big factor is the length of said trips. 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...

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    What about if I dropped 400 lbs off of that weight? My other racecar weights 2200lbs, add 1600 lb trailer, you're down to 3800lbs...

    2nd Gen Tacoma - Frequent Towing an Issue?

    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...

    HMMWV double beadlocks wheels on a Ford Superduty

    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.

    HMMWV double beadlocks wheels on a Ford Superduty

    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.

    F350 Overland Upgrades

    Whoa, I'm really liking the looks of this build...good looking and functional, but not over the top. I'd love to do something similar with my 250.
