I am coming back

I am coming back. I sold my 05 2500 silver CTD about 4 months ago and bought a 2005 Toyota tacoma trd v6 double cab. What a mistake. You cant upgrade from a real truck to a Toyota. That thing had alot less power and worse gas mileage. So now I am in the market for another CTD. Thinking about getting a 2005 2500 quad cab 4 x 4 in Mineral grey. What do you guy's thing about this color? My last truck I had 305/70/17 good year mtr's on stock 17 inch wheel and a 3 inch spacer leveling kit. I am thinking on this one I want to lift it the right way, but I am not sure what that is. The hight was good with the leveling kit but I felt like there was alot of stress on the front end. Open to bigger tires as well. What do you all think ?

Toyota left out the important vowel in "trd" for a reason. Hope your mistake (loss in depreciation) is not too great.

Why the change? I mean, the first one. I have had 2 Tacomas, and they were decent small trucks. Hell, I even used one to move from Anchorage to NY to Tampa to Salt Lake City. It was a good truck, but not a lot of room.

As for the missing letter... which letter is missing 'a' or 'u'?

"U" or "E" dependent on what part of the US you're in.

I think the right way to level/lift the truck is w/ a Kore suspension. http://koreperformance.com/welcome.htm It's not cheap though. I've saving my $$.

As for the color, I really like the mineral gray. Check out my gallery.
