    Good morning all,
    Hope you are all enjoying your weekend.

    I'm all over the place when it comes to cars. Im currently on a Tesla Model 3 Dual Motor (no complaints there). I have no brand loyalty, but Im gravitating towards Toyota due to their known reliability and strong resale value. Im starting my research for Gen 3 Tundras since I would like something to go off road. I'm looking at the TRD Pro and hopefully buy one at some point later next year since the car market is ridiculous right now.

    Thanks!

    Welcome and good luck with your research. I traded a Tacoma for my Tundra to haul a trailer. It made me quit doing off road. Depending on where you live and the type of off road, full size trucks often aren't the best choice. Trails are often narrow and the turning radius isn't great on a FST. Something to think about, or not.

    Thank you.

    Not planning to do any advanced/serious off roading, just trying to do some beach off roading and get to certain trails we like to hike, also my Home Depot trips are getting a little awkward with my Tesla haha. I appreciate the technical info (good to know), this would be my first FST.

    Welcome and greetings from Minnesota. Aim for a lightly used 2021 or hold off for a new 2023 to give them time to shake out the new model introduction glitches. Good luck in your search.
