NT, recommend me a truck

I just bought a 2009 tundra a couple weeks ago. People slip on the tundras, they are beasts..

If you want to go American, go with a Silverado or a Sierra...

Don't go with one of the small girly trucks like an S10...

You will probably never go back to a car. I used to cram my 6'6", jolly green giant %%@ into a car and since I bought a truck, I will never go back.

Feels soooo much safer too. In a car when someone would fly out in front of me, I would slam on the brakes..in a truck I encourage it, cause no damns will be given when I crunch their Prius to a pulp...

I was convinced of the Toyota build quality on their Hilux/Tacoma.

I'm looking to get one this year, if this business venture I'm working on pops off.

Something like this...

Go big or go home.
This is the mentality that gets people in debt. You want OP to spend double his budget so he can "go big"? Come on now.

Fords are nice, I love the look of them. If someone handed me $50K+, I would go straight to the F-250 Super Duty...Those trucks are mean..

It was really tough when I was shopping for a "new" truck because I was limited to what I could find on the used lots..

I had wanted a Tundra since they switched up the size/look in 2007 and I just happened to find one, in the color I wanted (black) in my price range..

The salesman told me that they were desperate to move some cars before the end of the month, so I bent them over on the price..It books for 22K. They had it marked down to 19,700 and I got them all the way down to 17,500...I also told them that my trade in price wasn't going to work and that I wanted an extra grand added onto that...

I also got a warranty and 3 years of free oil changes/tire rotations..

1 Owner, 50K miles.



Trying to decide on which rims I want, so I did a couple PS's:
 
The weird things about trucks is that they actually work, for a long time and really well. (It's sad that this is surprising or weird...)

Toyota's are pretty much indestructible, according to top gear for example, but all-in-all I've only heard good things about them.
On contrary i've also only heard good things about F150, Chevy and Dodge, so it's only a matter of taste and need I suppose.
 
For some reason I want a ford 250 lifted. Pros cons and what Am I looking at spending?



Been a jeep guy forever. Had Cherokees and a Commander. Was looking into a new wrangler but want something big
 
I got the same F150 as wanksta but in blue and gun metal. I love my truck but I may have to get rid of it soon because gas is a killer.

Wanksta the window failure must be a manufacturing problem because I also had to replace two window motors.
