A truck makes a fantastic travel vehicle with a toneau tri fold cover. Tons of room in bed for everything a family needs. With a family of 6 the truck doesn’t work for us.I have both a 2020 AT4 (so not ZR2 but close) and a 2017 200 in my garage. We used to have a Volvo XC70 wagon and the Cruiser but my wife wanted a bigger car so we traded in the Volvo for the truck and I gave her the Cruiser to drive.
I absolutely love the AT4. I *also* absolutely love the 200. They are two completely different vehicles and are great in their own right. I have paint issues on one part of the bumper of the AT4, but otherwise have been *very* happy with my truck in the almost 50k miles of ownership. No issues with lifters on the 6.2L either. The utility was critical during multiple moves and various projects. It also fits car seats a lot better than the 200. It tows better in different ways than the 200: it's more stable on the highway with greater length and more power, but the 200 maneuvers in tighter spaces better. They both do equally well with a 6400lb boat/trailer combo at the ramp.
Really the only issue we have with the 200 is space. I know that may sound ridiculous but these car seats these days are gigantic. We have a 1 y/o now and his car seat keeps my wife from reclining her seat beyond comfortable position for travel. I would be unable to sit comfortably with another seat behind me. Furthermore with a 65lb dog and a cooler we would have essentially zero space for the amount of crap we bring, which looks like Hannibal crossing the Alps. If/when dash-2 arrives, we will likely go to a Suburban with captain's chairs.
The question ultimately will be: sell the 200 and stay with 2 cars, keep the 200 at 3 cars, sell the 200 and replace with a FJ60/62.
I went without a truck for about 4 years and I can't imagine not having one in the family.
Ultimately, the reliability of the Toyota is why I love imy lx570 so much. Truck has 90k miles and I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it cross country. My 3.5 expedition is another story.
