New truck/car lately?

With all the incentives about to end on Monday there must be others that got a new vehicle lately. After 6 years/100,000 with my Chevy Z71 I pulled the trigger on 2011 Tundra DC 4x4 SR5 with the 5.7 engine. This was easy since I put $2,600 for things that needed to be fix that wasn't normal wear and tear. Plus it was a interest free loan and they gave me 11000 on trade in. I just thought if I kept the Chevy it would need more repairs and its value would go down. I kick myself for not getting a Tundra last time and am really happy with the new truck.

Nice buy! I picked up an 2011 Rav4 for my wife a few weeks ago. Plenty of good deals and incentives right now.

We went to 3 different Toyota dealers and boy they were busy. Their selection was low on Tundras at all 3 but the one I found was exactly what I wanted.

Is anyone worried about the quality of vehicles made in the last few years? I just feel with every other company making cut backs and opting for the lowest bid / supplies, that vehicle quality would be taking a hit also. I'm also on the edge of buying a new vehicle but I'm trying to limp mine along as the repairs have been mostly normal wear and tear but it's starting to add up.

Would love to get a tundra...what do you like about it over your chevy (other then it's new)? How mechanical friendly is it etc, changing spark plugs, brakes, belts...is the engine overly packed?
