I own an '08 tundra with the double cab. I avg 17l/100km since I've owned it- that's mainly town, bush and towing my boat. Don't do a lot of highway driving. I too debated with the Tacoma vs tundra- I am very glad I went with the tundra. Tacomas are too small for me inside, the narrow advantage of the Tacoma is a moot point for me, Unless I lived in Vancouver. I can get my Tundra every where I ever need to in the bush, maybe once in a blue moon would I wish my truck was narrower. The minimal width difference is not a selling point for me. Use full size pickups in the bush for work and they go everywhere we need. I have taken 5 full size guys on a 5 hr road trip with no issue, I couldn't do that in the Tacoma. As far as fuel economy goes, how many km do you actually drive in a year? Avg person does 20,000. Some of my friends with F150s avg 14l/100km under similar driving as me. So 20,000/100 X 3 extra litres/km = me using an extra 600l of fuel per year than if I had an F150. X $1.20/l =$720 extra in fuel per year. $720 a year is easily burned up in the extra mechanical repairs they have had over the years. I have done only maintenance. Unless you are driving 50-100k/yr I feel like the extra gas is more than saved in repairs and in future re-sale. Tacoma would be the same as tundra for resale but the comfort of the larger cab outweighs the fuel savings in my mind. I could still get over $20k for my truck if I sold it today, can't say the same for a domestic in the same condition.
