Hey Id love a toyota! But I could NEVER part with my truck. If the motor problems are nasty and its not worth me fixing Ill be researching a cummins and dumping my bimmer 
Dont flame him for the yota, Tacomas are engineered, researched and built in America! So you are helping Americas, period. I have def become a mopar man but if you look in my sig I have 2 imports too. Nothing wrong with imports, Americans are still employed to get them in the US and on the road.
Honestly Id rather get my kota to 110% than replace it. My subby is just my DD at the moment so I can get my kota done

Get or keep what you like period, but I personally would not base 1-2 mpg on my choice. I have a 2003 4X4 4.7 QC and wouldn't trade it for 2010 Tacoma, but that is just me. The Toyota is probably a good truck, but I love my small block V8 and after I regear I dare a Tacoma to challenge me. And yes if you get a Toyo you will prob get a load of cr@p from everybody here, but it will be deserved

My younger brother went from a Yota xtended cab v-6 4X4 to a 1500 ram reg cab 4X4 sport, the ram got better gas milage had more power and much higher towing capacity. Me personally I have had a Dak for going on 6 yrs now and I wouldn't trade it for anything else except another Dak. Mine has towed almost 9,000lbs before with no issues. I seriously don't think you will do that with a yota (safely).

I believe the V8 w/manual trans gets the best mileage of all the Dak's
