The wife is pushing for me to get an extra vehicle and I’m like with used truck prices it doesn’t make any sense. Just trade in one of the cars and get an F150 crew cab for 40k. DD and can do work chit except heavy towing.
Used trucks are mad expensive and then it’s extra insurance, registration, and personal property taxes. Plus repairs on a used truck.

It’s a good off-road vehicle. A great one even. But that’s it. It’s a niche vehicle. But they sell because people want the image.
And not saying I made a good choice with my Colorado. That was a mistake. Had it like a year.

I mean if you want a truck and don’t have a lot of truck stuff to do then ok. Or won’t have passengers or car seats. Or you have limited stuff that a small truck can handle. But gas mileage between it and a full size truck is insignificant. The full sized trucks drive mich better.
The Colorado you knew you were driving a truck.

Was gonna buy a Taco when I got my Tundra. Wayyy too small. With the seat as far down is it would go it felt like being paralyzed was one bump away. That's how close my head felt to the fuking roof. Back seat area is also tiny.

Do 19x magazines fit in gen 5s? Pretty sure they do and it’s gen 5 mags that don’t fit in 19xs but just wanted to be sure.
Picked up a couple 24 round factory mags today and they seem pretty legit.

Yeah, Tacoma and 4Runner is just too small. I really like how they look, how they can be made to look, off road/snow/etc ability when properly equipped, Toyota reliability and durability, but, they are just too small, even for me by myself, I want roooom, let alone passengers/kids/car seats/dogs/cargo...full size or bust. And in a collision with another vehicle, you want more size and mass and crumple zone space on your side if you can. Colorado would have a lot of those same limitations.

the f-150 is absurdly big IMO - if I were to buy new instead of used, I was leaning to the double cabs that chevy/gmc had for the increased bed space

Done. My only issue is the magazines. Slide in and click nicely with the upper off but when it's on they don't slide in all the way to click. What gives?

Also, you're probably better off just using Magpul mags.

I'm like a lot of buyers, I don't need a third row or a truck bed, but I'd rather have the bed + more vehicle options available and spend less money all at the same timecompared to previous f-150's I've had
