I just bought a new 2017 Chevy in July, and was really looking at the Tundra as my first choice, but my dealer wouldn’t deal on the Tundras. I ended picking a Chevy z71 Silverado, loaded with leather, cool electronics/car play. It’s ended up being a really nice truck. I’ve hauled my trailer/4 wheelers to the camp, fairly decent power, even though I’d probably give the Tundra the edge here, but for my towing, the Chevy has done well. The real cool thing has been gas mileage, which the truck records mileage with a running 50 mile average on the dash. The truck will switch from V8 to V4 to squeeze the mileage, and with my increased travel to work this year, it’s a real savings. I’ve gotten up to 23.5 MPG, and consistently get 21.5 on my drive to work( 50 mile averages). Sticker was over 50 grand, but they were running some year end special, and ended up with a decent truck at 41, 500. I really like the Tundra, but for my situation, I feel like the Chevy wasn’t a bad choice...
