You know I love my Tacoma, however, the van would save you some coin being able to sleep in it when you hit different locations. You would probably have fun with the van just living out of it whenever you wanted. If your looking to haul a bunch of shit, (leathers, stands, extra tires, etc. I would really say that the van is the smart way to go. Not to mention that everything would be inside and out of sight when you traveled. My Tacoma is bigger then that one in all aspects as you know but I couldn't see hauling tires, stands, coolers, generators, etc needed for racing around in my truck let alone that one. Get the van and we can do some work on it to make it the perfect toy hauler.
