I don't disagree with what you're saying.
To be honest I don't want a truck at all. They're terrible daily drivers and the only reason I'm buying one is for this 6 month trip. Upon our return we'll probably sell the trailer as we don't camp often, but i'll still be left with a truck. I'd prefer something smaller, 1/2 ton size if required over the larger 3/4 ton. I also like Toyota better than domestic. Alternatively I buy a 3/4 ton and sell it when we return as well. Its just not to friendly on the wallet to unload a bunch of newly purchased items 6 months later.

FWIW, the Tundra gets worse gas mileage than many 3/4 ton trucks. If you're going to be using the truck as a daily driver after your trip, you may wish to consider the fact that a Silverado/Sierra or F150 will get 21+mpg day in and day out, unloaded, and you will have a payload capacity over 2,000 lbs with an extended cab.
