    I can turn mine just fine. Although it does take more room, ground control personnel, a three week notification in the city I'm turning in, coordinated efforts between NASA the DOT and local law enforcement for road closures, but it can be done.

    Mike don't forget to set up the orange delineator cones at osha's approved distance to warn oncoming traffic.

    It's all in what you're used to. I'm from the opposite end of the spectrum that the tacoma is. I had a 4 door long long bed diesel I compare my tundras turning radius to that of a golf cart, haha.

    Haha, ya Cal was always fun, especially when I had my dually and I'd go to visit friends on the Newport peninsula or in LB. I swear that CA's freeway lanes are 6-10" narrower than the ones in AZ

    I have property in Northeast AZ, off grid on maintained roads. I was supposed to be there now but plans changed. The gravel roads there are better maintained and one lane just enough room for me to hog :mudding:

    I feel your pain! I had a 10' f350 crew long bed dually for a minute (lost the motor at 36k). That was the worst radius by far! I never understood the f550's. I drove one while looking for a truck for work and ended up with a freightliner single cab that we made a 12' bed for, that thing parked and maneuvered better than any 1 ton I've ever driven to date. Not to mention more capacity than you'll ever need.

    My Tundra can do a U-turn under 45' radius. Stock radius is around 44' for CM and DC with 6.5' bd. Better than Ford and Chevy. I think RAM has slightly better radius at similar WB length.

    Not hurting anything. Towing or loading anything heavy could be a problem because the springs are almost flat already. No arch.

    Get an alignment adjustment. It will tighten your u-turns.
