[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 3205775, member: 1132"] If you can afford a 2016 Tahoe, I'd go that route. I've owned several TMC vehicles now. I currently have an 02' 4Runner and an 18' Colorado ZR2. I also have a 17' Tahoe at work. All three are 4X4. When I was looking for my new truck, I cross shopped the 4Runner to my Colorado (if they made the Colorado ZR2 as an SUV, I'd have gotten that). I really liked the new 4Runner, except to get the same stuff on it would've cost me about $7K more than the ZR2. The 4Runner wasn't as smooth riding, wasn't as refined inside, the tech was older, got about the same observed MPG and wouldn't tow as well as the ZR2. I actually wanted the 4Runner more, but it just didn't make sense. Oh and one other thing, I got so much more off the MSRP on my ZR2 that even used with 7.5K on the odometer, I could sell it for the same as I paid for it right now. Not even the 4Runner could I do that with. Funny thing is, the Tahoe at work gets about the same observed MPG as the ZR2 and 4Runner, despite being a larger class vehicle with much more room, better towing and a much smoother, quieter ride. The amenities are even better in the Tahoe than the ZR2. If it weren't for the fact that it was much more expensive than the ZR2 and the 4Runner, plus I just didn't need a truck that large, I'd have definitely went for the Tahoe. Tl;dr: In my personal experience, I think the 'Hoe is a lot more vehicle than the 4Runner. Just get it at an awesome price and the overall depreciation difference will be negligible. [/QUOTE]
