Truck Buying help!?

I can't make up my mind! I'm looking at 07 Tacomas, i found two double cab shortbeds 2wd., one for $25,500 and one with leather for $26,500. Both trucks have factory wheels and no towing package. I also found an 06 Tx. edition with 20" wheels, Borla exh. chrome step bars and towing package for $24,500 with 17,000 miles and the remaining factory warranty. What would you do? Thanks!

1. Get a truck with 4wd I dont know if youd ever driven a truck in the snow but it sucks. Granted you live in a cold weather area.
2. ..i think i would go with the 07 without the leather. i dont think i could push myself to spend an extra $1000 on a matereal that makes your legs stick to it in the summer. its annoying. but....different strokes for different folks. but i wouldnt buy the 06. when you do that, you are just taking on other people's problems. you dont know how hard they drove it before they decided to sell it. hope this helps.
3. I've seen the 06 Texas Ed. and came very close to buying but that was a lot of extra coin. Knowing that it still has 3 or so years of warranty left and 17K, I'd go with the 06; someone else dealt with all that front-end depreciation for you -- well worth it!
4. I would be wondering why someone got rid of that '06 with only 17K miles. For MY money, I'd get a NEW one. But I keep my cars and trucks for at LEAST 10 years before unloading them.
