Default Plugs - Platinum vs. Iridium

Reading the thread on plug gap discrep got me thinking about changing mine out. Currently without exta dough I'm wondering if the price difference between the denso platinum & iridium is worth it. Thoughts, suggestions?
Thanks!

I use the same regular Denso plugs that came in my Tundra and change them every 30,000 miles. Haven't seen the need to spend the extra bucks because they are so easy to change.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to siphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????
If your engine doesn't consume ANY oil it will seize???
Some people should not be allowed access to tools without books!!!

Thanks!
I know my truck uses the regular plugs while my parents 4runner with the same V8 engine uses the longer last plugs. I am not sure of the difference.
