Traded in 2006 SR5 for a 2012 SR5

WELCOME BACK JOHNNY T. I was starting to like my 5th gen again, but I'm glad you're back to tell me how awful it is.

Nah.... its a damn good truck. What did I say in this thread that alluded to it as being bad or awful??

If I had to buy a new truck today, its what I'd buy. No doubt or hesitation.

Your post (fourth one from top) on page one of this thread:

"You're right to be somewhat concerned. To me, the overall build quality contrast between a 4th and 5th gen is striking.

Others here have posted that it may likely be due to the obsession on overall weight and gas mileage improvements which could impact the type and weight of sheet metal used. Interior quality has degraded also IMO."

How does that comment mean that it is bad or awful? It's simply not as good as it could be.

Yes, I know, its because they're keeping costs down, staying competitive, etc., etc. Been through that.

But it's still better than other new trucks, no?

Not just as good as the older ones IMO. And yet I could very well be wrong because they are only 3 yrs old or less..... Hope I am.
