Brian my Tundra gets 22-23mpg. As far as your wanting the band so much so you won’t look so bad Sorry we are here to stay. As far as using you tube and the dirty guy… Well needles say I trust you tube as far as I can click it.. Also your dirty guy is a spokesman for Ford, How original….. One thing only an idiot would go over bumps like that at 25mph. If you’re into by all means break away. Wow great demonstration…What you got for an encore??? You put that on you tube also??? While you’re doing that don’t forget your handout……

hey mickey the reason a semi frame actually twists is because on average a semis motor puts out over 800ft lbs of tq put a solid plat of steel under that it will still twist and with useing a C channel frame and “beefing it up” just adds weight and loses MPGs and with the CAFE MPG law in place the Tundra could be BAND from the usa also toyota can not bring there diesel into the US because the emissions are missing 42 of the 50 points needed to pass

haha this site is such a freakin joke. Everyone is hating on toyota and its supposed to be a TOYOTA site. Thats funny. Anyone with a brain knows that all the comments are from people who work for FORD, CHEVROLET, and DODGE. yall need to try harder if you really want people to think this crap is real.

About the semi your twist depends on the driver of the semi. One who knows what he’s doing takes off quite well. More than likely you see the engine lift up one side of the truck as it takes off that’s just an avg driver. When put against an experience one he won’t lift it that way. We can sit here all day while you try your best to compare. It breaks down and it shows you’re worried about someone taking your piece of pie. Your V10 isn’t all what it’s cracked up to be. Is it standard on the 1/2 ton or is it an option? To start off with anonymous besides (No Name) who’s the ones that got a bailout? Toyota hasn’t asked for one and yes it reported it’s first loss for a quarter. How many quarters have your trucks reported a loss? I can see why you left no name talking about a tailgate and C/R. When you’re afraid it shows….Try again when you get some.

When your talking about a semi’s frame you seem to forget somthing. When do you see a Kenworth off-roading? If you look at a semi starting from a standstill you will see the frame twist, but if you pay close attention you will also see the gap between the hood and cab contract and extend due to the flex. So with this being said what do you think is going to happen when you happen to twist that frame on uneven ground with a load. Bed contacts cab, theres videos about it. Wait didn’t NSHTA have somthing to say about the frame. Somthing to the effect of its a reason it not receiving a FIVE star rating.
So whos Toyota compensating for the sales loss? Who is going to bail them out??
As for Toyota dominating the domestics in Performance and HP, didnt Dodge just call bluff with the new design of the Hemi. I can see the domestics sitting around laughing about Toyota. Dodge beat the Tundra HP with the new designed Hemi. Ford is still waiting for someone to come close to the V-10 (somthing about 450 ft lbs of TQ) or 5.4 supercharged. Chevy is just trying to stay afloat.

So whos the Tundra tailgates holding up?? Its the truck that is changing everything. Mostly their rating in Consumer reports to worst that average reliablity.

I don’t quite know what you have Mike. I don’t have that noise. I have 46,500 miles on mine.

Lifter noise and sounding like a diesel with the valve or lifter noise leaves some room for improvement. A 2008 I hear start up every morning sounds like my neighbors Dodge Cummins.

It is the best part of the truck by far but a bit of refining wouldn’t hurt would it?
