I need some advise on choosing a truck for towing. Next month I will be moving from eastern Kentucky to Las Vegas, and before I leave KY, I want to buy a new truck that will capable of towing a 3500lb U-haul trailer during the long-distance move. Once settling in Las Vegas, I will be towing a 3500lb trailer on occassion. Since there is only a marginal price difference between the V6 Tacoma and the V6 Tundra, I am considering either a) a 2007 V6 4x2 Tacoma Pre-Runner access cab with a towing package, or b) a baseline 2007 V6 4x2 Tundra regular cab without a tow package. I slightly prefer the Tacoma because of its less spartan features, but I am very concerned about the ability of the Tacoma to pull a 3500lb trailer for an extended period of time at high altitudes and extreme temperatures. Do you believe that the aforescribed Tacoma would be able to pull the trailer without substantial wear to the vehicle and without compromising safety, or do you believe that the Tundra is the best option? Thanks.
