The dakota is the best truck for the money and size, looks great as well. If you buy a v-8 they have a much better tow rating than the tacoma.

Barb, the R/T is among the quickest trucks on the road with the Magnum 5.9L under the hood, but if your looking for truck to pull and haul a lot, u don't need the R/T. The R/T is built for speed, it's lowered from the factory and can hug turns with the best of 'em. The R/T is a sweet truck, but i'm not sure it's what u'r looking for.

Don't buy the R/T untill you drive a 4.7/5sp/3.92. It's quicker, more agile, about $4000 cheaper and gives you better gas mileage. But don't tell the R/T people they get REALLY touchy!
