If you were going to have a do everything Tacoma or Tundra, what model would you get.

I had the same question as the OP. I'd love a taco but "needed" more space in the cab (2 adults, 3 kids). I'd also been wanting to rent the occasional TT with plans to eventually buy. Not to mention the Jeep that wants to be a trailer queen. Long story short I ended up with a 16 Tundra like the white CM above.

The most difficult decision was DC vs CM. A foot of cab vs a foot of bed. I knew either way I'd end up with some sort of buyers remorse depending on the situation. Too bad the only way to get a CM with a 6.5' bed is to have the frame and driveline custom stretched not to mention the new bed. Hmmm, maybe I will at least find out what that number is.

This CM longbed was done by Precision Bodyline in SLC, UT. Too long for my taste, but you get the idea.

A CM w 6.5' bed would be perfect. Thanks for the link.

A friend may be selling is 2013 Tundra DC with low miles and a great price...SR5 w/ TRD & 6.5 bed. Im thinking that might be the one, but its about a month off, if at all.

Welcome.

Not sure why Toyota doesn't offer it from the factory, all of the others offer a crew 6.5' bed now.

Yes its the APex. If I had to do over i would have them weld the nut attachments on. Not a big deal if you weld but I don't. Other than that its a very sturdy rack.
