x2...The hood line and front end looks just like the new tundra...I'm guessing it'll look pretty similar. Its hard to tell with all the tape.

Considering that The Tundra 5.7 liter makes 381hp and 401 ft/lb. an average fuel economy of 14/18 really isnt that bad. I make about 150/190 and get that mpg at BEST. I do think, however, that Toyota could put out a diesel with those numbers if not better, and get 20+ mpg

I wonder if it will dent up and bend like the new tundra is doing? Warping beds and tailgates, flexing frames, bad torque converters and snapping cams along with flaking dash paint.

Dang, what do you bench?

Read the newest consumer ratings for Toyota quality and reliability. I'll see if I can find the article, but 3 Toyotas scored Below average.

Edit: Found several articles

Toyota is stepping away from quality, and venturing the same path as GM and Ford. Especially with most Toyotas now built in America. Made in America? No thanks i'd rather have made in Japan.
