I don’t know if you’re looking new new, but if I had to buy something other than my 18 Tundra I really like the 2010-19ish Chevy/GMC 2500s with the old 6.0 gas V8. I used a few of those hard and I liked them a lot. Kind of like the 2nd gen tundras, they were pretty technologically old fashioned compared to a lot of the new stuff out there now but they just worked. I still prefer my Tundra though. I don’t know anything about the new GM 6.6 gas.

The landscaping contractor we use is converting from diesel trucks to the GM 6.6 gas. Trucks cost less. Maintenance as far as oil changes are less. And they tow well. mtmuley

What an awesome hunt! So much fun to have kids along for the hunt.

I took my girlfriends 5 year old hunting for the first time this year. He loved it, and somehow, I shot my target buck I'd been watching for a few months now. His mom was just about to come get him from the stand as he was starting to get squirrely and restless, but 2 hours in a stand will do that to a 5 year old! So 10 minutes before she showed up, the buck showed up and presented a quick shot.

I can't believe a new motor for a Toyota is $15-$20k... I had to put a new motor in my 2007 silverado back in like 2018 I think, and it was $5k. That was a brand new motor.

I too am skeptical of the price to swap engines . My Chevy 6.0 (A far superior motor with roots that goes deep into Americas' history ) is $6200 and the swap is like $1500-$2000 depending what needs to be replaced with it , hoses , belts , filters ....
