Considering buying a new full size 4wd truck this spring or early summer. I currently drive a 1999 4wd extended cab Tacoma. I use it for hunting trips and towing a 5 x 10 utility trailer and 4 wheeler. I don't really need a full size truck but my wife and I would like some extra room when traveling with our teenage son. The added size and towing power would be a benefit but not a requirement.

Right now I like the Tundra Double Cab, F150 Super Cab and the Sierra/Silverado Ext Cab. I am also considering the Tacoma Double Cab as it will do everything I need a truck to do. However, IMO the full size trucks offer more room, more capabilities, and seem to get pretty close to the same gas mileage.

I'm looking for some real world experiences(good or bad) and observations/opinions with any of these trucks. In the Tundra I am considering the 4.6 liter, the F150 would be the 5.0 liter, and the GM's would be the 5.3 liter.
