I recently traded a 2004 Chevy 2500 Quad Cab HD 4x4 with 6.0 gas engine and 4.10 rear end. It was a short bed and did everything I ever asked of it. It didn't have a very good turning radius and I averaged about 13 mpg. I traded it this past August with 68K on it.

I bought a 2011 Tundra Double Cab 4x4 with 5.7 with 4.30 rear end and a short bed. This truck provides a very nice ride, plenty of power and very good off road capability if I take off the traction control. I have about 7700 miles on it and have averaged 17.1 MPG so far.

Just my experience.

It's good to lead - it's better to lead by example.
