[QUOTE="Braaaaptor, post: 1478292, member: 40330"] I think I saw you post this on FB as well, but I'll chime in again. Full disclosure I only have the Gen 2 perspective. Gen 2 is a very easy truck to live with and daily drive. It does feel silly in parking lots or parking garages but you'll get used to it. The level of tech and features you get on a Gen 2 will far surpass the Gen 1 (heated/cooled seats, BSM, ACC, 360 cameras, infotainment, etc.). For a daily I'd consider gas milage as well, I'm getting 17mpg on a '20 daily driving and I go WOT a few times each time I drive it. I've seen Gen 1's get single digit MPGs so if that's a concern, win Gen 2. I would also consider future resale, in which case you're looking at 4-7 years difference in age which can drastically alter what your truck might be worth when it comes time to move on. If you can get a CPO Gen 2 you'll also get some piece of mind with a warranty from the dealer. There's a forum on here where Gen 2 owners are already pushing 100k and going strong. Good luck with your search! [/QUOTE]
