This is in the dog section because I am considering a change of vehicle next season and my decision will be DOG and hunting driven. I have a Toyota 4R TRD Pro 2020 which is about as bullet proof a vehicle that you can get, but is going to be too small with two dogs. I have 130,000 on the odo and the only thing I've done is rotors and pads and oil changes. That's it. My wants are these in order:

1. Durability and toughness
2. 2 dogs in crates (English setters)
3. Would like a new vehicle not a used legacy vehicle

Am of course open to a pickup. Have always been a Toyota fan, the last 5 we've had have accumulated 1.2 million miles and never had issues. Now, they are changing everything and with hybrid battery space it takes up valuable dog and gear space. So if you can post photos of your hunting rigs and recommendations along with preferred (removable or built in) dog crates. I drive my vehicles pretty hard and use them and my 4R in Maine has been nothing short of outstanding. I just don't know where to go from here. I am getting a lot of "Do NOT buy a new Toyota (Chevy, Ford, GMC...) engine no matter what you do, find an old 2018 V8... " I have zero interest in buying something with 70,000 on it already.
