Go with the Toyos. A far better choice in every way. I have the Falkens on my Sequoia (it came that way) and I hate them in most situations. Toyo is making the RT Trail now, and that is my likely replacement if they show up soon enough.
When someone says “soooooooo many”, the extended number of ooooooooos typically indicates sarcasm. That holds true in this case. 4x4 vans are not a common find.
You will be fine with the 5.7 and a 3-4000lb trailer. Your won’t need a WD hitch either. I live in the mountains of BC and deal with lots of big passes. I also own a custom trailer company and set client tow vehicles and trailers up regularly. The 2008+ Tundras are excellent tow vehicles for...
I have a 2.5 Gen Tundra and a 1st Gen Sequoia (03 Tundra in the past), and I agree 100% that the size and nimbleness of the 1st gens is fantastic. I also find the 1st Gen more comfortable than the 2.5 as well. We did a trip through Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and Utah this fall, and took...

Its a DIY kit, but you could find a welder to whip it up for you if you can’t weld. $650 for the basic kit.
Looking amazing! You are in SoCal I’m guessing? I saw a pile of dent sides, bumps, and Mustangs across from the In N Out in Eureka last week. It’s good to see they are still out there.
This pic makes me feel better about my plan to do a white/tan combo on my green ‘94 Bronco. You have...
What engine is in it?
ARB bumper, some skinny 34” tires and whatever rear bumper you like. Do all the maintenance and get a few spares and go. For what you are describing, you’re almost there.
Have a look at Sky Offroads shackle reversal kit for the front end. It comes in various lift...
I’d go V8 over V6 any day, but the 3.6 in the Dodge is where I’d land given your two choices. As others have said, fuel economy won’t be much different between the V6 and V8s in the “real” world. Yes, the 6s do better on EPA controlled tests, but reality based testing you might see 1-2 mpg...
I’d rather eat broken glass than go on facebook. Every time someone sends me a link to some market place ad or whatever, it’s a disaster.
I appreciate the thought though. Your likely correct about there being a group for Broncos.
