Just purchased a 04 3023. I think I got a great deal for $15500 including delivery from Conn. to Ala. It has never been camped in. I currently have a 97 F150 4.6 Supercab that has a tow rating of about 6600 lbs. I need to upgrade to a 4 door truck as my boys are cramped in the back seat. I would like to save some money on gas as it will be a daily driver. I have looked at both the new Frontier and Tacoma. They both have more horsepower and towing capacity than my V8 Ford. However I have read the V6 are overstressed by towing. Anyone with any experience with either of these vehicles and extended towing?

Thanks!!
Eric
