I am through with the BIG trucks
Now that I got this truck perfect, I am gonna sell it. I think I'll get a toyota 4X4 long bed.
Not knocking the big trucks. I really like my chevy. It's just too expensive for me to drive.
Gas prices here in californicator land are WAY too high. This forces people like me on fixed
incomes to downsize. Thanks ahnold!

What kind of mileage are you getting now, and what do you expect you'll get with your new Toyota? What kind of Toyota are you planning on getting?

Just a little info. Someone posted on this website within the last week a link to another website with some information about Toyota trucks. Toyota has destroyed data and evidence from crash testing that showed the Tundra to be less than safe. Do a search, you might find it.

I think vncj96 may have been reffering to the new chevy's and toyotas. For the year your looking at, I think it would be hard to find a chevy that got better mileage, because I don't think toyota made V8's then, and that's about all you could find in the good ol' Chevys!!
Anyway, that sucks to here you have to sell your truck man..."I tried to explain, how it makes me feel. The awesome power of my hands on the wheel..."
Current Vehicle:
1991 Chevy K1500 4x4 - 180k, newer motor and tranny. All stock except for a Sony HU, Kicker 4x6" speakers and a Kicker 8" sub.
Previous Vehicle:
1990 Suburban V1500 4x4 - SOLD... Damn I'm gonna miss that beast.
