Pick up truck thoughts?

So I’ve been planning on getting a 1/2 ton pickup truck for a while. Looking at new , possibly a lease but not 100% sure on either parts of that statement.

If I go new I’m deciding between a F150 and a Tundra. Both have there pluses and minuses . From what I can gather I’d say the F150 is a better overall vehicle while the tundra may hold its value better. I also have a family member working at Toyota so I can get services for cost.

I’m not in trades but do own a house and my own business so will get regular use for this . Strictly speaking I don’t need a truck as I am able to get by without one but regardless on balance I think that’s the way we are leaning.

I am considering a lightning ( just to throw a curveball in here ) as well but my only hesitation is we are thinking about a trailer or possibly a RV in the next year ir so. A trailer doesn’t really work with a lightning but I could get a RV /motor home ( real nice Clark!) so that it wouldn’t matter . I think however a electric pickup handles 90 percent of what I want the truck to do day to day.

So for those that have trucks any thoughts on the above scenarios? Would you even go new ? Have also considered a used F150
