The bed. As I said the back seat is usable since there's plenty of room for the front seats to move forward.

On the bad record thought...
After moving from Mississauga to the smaller Geoegetown I'm noticing way more police presence, these guys have nothing to do man. I bet kids get harrassed more then normal here.

Guess who needs a tow rig for their racecar. That’s me!
I have no brand bias. My only requirement is the ability to tow the R32, 4 doors, and have heated seats.
Even a frontier appears to have the towing capacity needed. But I’m sure running 200 miles each way at max towing capacity may not be the best idea.
Budget is 25k max. I’m perfectly fine going used. It’s likely my only option at that price point. Id like to stay a little newer and lower mileage. But I’m not afraid to work on the truck when needed. This will be my daily driver so I need it to be reliable. I have no desire to lift, change wheels, tune, etc. I only drive about 5k miles a year. But that may change.
What am I in the market for? F150, Silverado, Colorado, frontier, Ram?

Get a new body style 4x4 extended cab ram bighorn hemi with 8.4 uconnect. Slightly over your budget @ 26-28k but I had one as a rental and it was amazeballs. I'd buy a new gen ram no questions asked over every competitor.Barnes93cb wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:52 pm Guess who needs a tow rig for their racecar. That’s me!

There will be a price premo and he lives in the barren wasteland of south/west Tejas. 4X4 will just add complexity, worse fuel mileage, cost.
Agreed that Ass Rammers are dope
tows his E30 on a car hauler with a Canyon so that may be an option that's a bit easier to live with as a daily?

get a RWD Laramie if you live in the dirty south. They’re quite a bit cheaper used.D Griff wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 7:49 am

Yeah 4wd isn’t a necessity. It’s pretty flat and dry out here. Plus I don’t really care to off-road. I’m more interested in breaking my vehicles on track.

You never know when you're gonna have your trailer on some wet grass, or maybe you're on a boat launch in the future? Plus rwd truck values tank harder than 4wd.
But yeah Laramie trim gets you standard led headlights (the halogens are still good though), and uconnect 8.4 with larger instrument cluster screen, plus the availability of blowers. If you don't want leather though the cloth on the Bighorn trim is

Depends on the area. Down south, 4x4 fetches no real premium that I can see (they're also hard to find). 2WD is perfectly fine.CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 11:47 am You never know when you're gonna have your trailer on some wet grass, or maybe you're on a boat launch in the future?

This truck feels ten years older to drive. Bouncy on the highway, the door armrest is hard, the turn signal stalk felt like it was about to break. It had this really weird high effort zone then a really brittle sounding click when it finally engaged. I also had mylink issues while streaming music. I did like the steering a little better though I think.

Oh...yea the T1 Silverado sucks for sure. It somehow manages to be worse than a K2.CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 1:10 pmThis truck feels ten years older to drive.

A used K2 Silverado would be a tow vehicle IMO.
