We need some kind of "good sport" ranking around here. We give a ton of shit to people and not everyone handles it well.
@Wyo_Roadhunter you passed with flying colors. I can only assume by your name your are out west, and lets face it, us western folk do not have our ******* in a bunch like those eastern SOB's.

Haha yep I'm in Wyoming and a power plant mechanic so there isn't much anyone could say on here to get me to riled up.

If it's going to sit in the garage ... a bicycle would be a lot cheaper. Just sayin'...

It only stays in the garage because I have other options and it cost alot of money haha. I like driving my old tacoma and diesel. Might as well put the miles on them until they break.

Just drive your Raptor. Life is full of what-ifs.

That's like saying you have a super model wife at home but you're banging the fat sloppy house wife down the street still.

Like the others have said lifes short, go enjoy that sweet Raptor while you can.

ok here's my opinion..
1-drive the raptor , I think a lot of the "issue' are overblown. My experience anyway... Mine is a 17 ive had forever it has 294xxx km. wheel bearing has been replaced last week actually and phasers are quiet (never done). Really zero issues.
2- it sounds like you simply enjoy older trucks, but like knowing you have a "new" one in garage just in case. in that case sounds like you should also keep the raptor for you back up truck.
3-lastly I think a tundra would seem totally boring and have the character of a corolla , wouldn't be cool to look at in the garage never mind drive.
--seems all points lead to you keeping the raptor, if your bored and need to spend money buy some parts for it. you get to scratch the itch of doing something without actually doing something

Might want to do a little search on tundra engine issues… but if it’s going to sit in a garage might not matter if it’s at yours or the dealers. Hah.

Aside from engine issues on the new tundras I’ll say their interior fitment is pretty garbage. I’ve driven and looked at several and most of them have dash rattles when you close the glove box or close the doors.

Just don’t see any positives to the tundra right now with their price, questionable engines, interior and lack of real off road options. I mean look at how low to the ground the TRD “pro” is… hardly a raptor replacement.

The rear window can completely roll down…that’s about it, that pretty much sums up the “advantage” Toyota trucks have over the competition (altho I must admit it is a very nice feature & I wish all trucks had it as an option)
