Period nothing else but taking Hyundai who had this out since the economy was going into the dump. To better you Ford didn't come out with the 12 month deal right away so again nice try. In fact Chevy beat Ford to that punch with the 12 month period. Down here where I'm at yes Toyota started that too. I'm not into some company buying my vehicle. Thank you... Now get your facts straight if you want to bash the Tundra. I don't like apple pie so I don't care for Ford much less GM. Unlike you I gave them a shot and both blew it. I moved on to what works. Unlike you again I just don't buy a product for just loyalty even when it doesn't work you go ahead keep buying it. Support them because they need all the help they can. Dan I can sit here all day and list the problems your vehicle has (had) if you want. 2 come to mind real fast. ROLLOVER KING and ohh hell my garage is on fire because my cruise control burnt up on my truck. As much as you want to blame Firestone your SUV's are notorious for rollovers period. Who can you blame for your cruise control? Should I mention GM blunders? Have fun Dan and type away, apparently one of us is totally satisfied with what we have. I have piece of mind now Dan how about you? Dan to start off with your company is a copycat. Period nothing else but taking Hyundai who had this out since the economy was going into the dump.

First you say that "You want a daily driver soccormom vehicle, pickup milk on the way home, buy a Half-ton", then you point out stats that show the F150 (a half ton) is the most American truck, followed by the Silverado and the Tundra. Question: I don't see the F-Series SuperDuty in the top 4, does that mean the Tundra is more American than the truck you choose to drive? ### For the record, I like the Ford diesel and I think it's a great tow vehicle. Good choice. Please note that I don't go to the Ford diesel enthusiast site that you frequent and piss all over your truck. Why you have to come here and piss on the Tundra is beyond me. What any of this has to do with the Edmunds Long Term report of the Tundra is REALLY beyond me. Why are you here? ### As for NUMMI, I don't know. I would guess that since Toyota is the one making the most vehicles at NUMMI, they're probably going to take it over if and/or when GM files for bankruptcy. Dan – You’re all over the board.

How owns this plant?? "New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc. is an automobile manufacturing plant in Fremont, California. The factory was a General Motors plant opened in 1962 and now represents a joint venture between GM and Toyota. When it reopened for production in 1984, it was the first automotive joint venture plant in the United States. GM saw this joint venture as an opportunity to learn about the ideas of lean manufacturing from the Japanese company, while Toyota gained its first manufacturing base in North America and a chance to implement its production system in an American labor environment. As of December of 2008, the NUMMI plant produces the Toyota Corolla compact car, Toyota Tacoma pickup truck, and the Pontiac Vibe hatchback. In the past, it produced the Chevrolet Nova (1984-1988); the Geo Prizm (1990-1997), and the Chevrolet Prizm (1998-2002), as well as the Toyota Voltz, the Japanese right-hand drive version of the Pontiac Vibe - both are based on the Toyota Matrix, which is also manufactured in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada along with the Toyota Corolla. Employment is nearly 5,500 workers. NUMMI employees are represented by The International, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) Local 2244. NUMMI sells 60% of its parts to Toyota and 40% to General Motors." If GM goes under, what happens to the 40% of parts for Toyota. Do the doors shut?? See the fall of the BIG 3 will effect much more than anyone ever thought! Serious note.

Cars.com's American-Made Index rates vehicles built and bought in the U.S. Factors include sales, where the car's parts are made and whether the car is assembled in the U.S. Models that have been discontinued are disqualified, as are those with a domestic-parts content rating below 75 percent. 1. F-150 2. Cobalt 3. Silverado 4. Tundra So "You want Hot or Mild sauce with that pitiful truck you have." Oh here is somthing I found that I just have to tell you about. RUST ISSUE!! So far 2000-2002 Tundra's have reported problems. What do you think you have, the future will tell (I will laugh till I cry)??? A rust bucket, literally. Dont you already have rust issue on the chrome??? What do you think the future holds?????? Dont be mad that Ford stands behind their product and has confidence in the American man to MAKE THEIR PAYMENTS for 12 months up to $700.00 a month. You would be one of those lazy guys who would try to abuse this. Whats that convert to in YEN Mickey?? Ford as americian as apple-pie. Tundra, got any YEN, hows that American. Enjoy your half American grocery getter, ask your wife or husband before take it! Did you know that Ford is #1 in all results for being American Built, so there why is Tundra #4.

For one I don't race. I get the most mpg's out of my truck. I tow a boat thank you like most Americans will not buy a diesel just to tow a small boat. I guess it's okay for you to be sarcastic and no one else? Get over it. You came here to website and throw out your trash and expect nothing said to you. If you don't like what's being said by all means use another website for your tantrums. Dan you’re the one with a problem here. For one I don’t race. I get the most mpg’s out of my truck.

Why are they immature? Did you get picked on in school? When did all this get so personel? Just a Bully picking on the little kids, grow up. I just point out the true fact of what I have seen. You want to tow buy a diesel, proven fact! You want a daily driver soccormom vehicle, pickup milk on the way home, buy a Half-ton. Im glad you have a Tundra, you fit the profile.

Mines states made in America. More than I can say for your Big 1. Jealousy gets you no where Dan. You just wish you had a back glass that moved. Instead you have this pitiful little window that opens up like a drive through at Taco Bell. You want Hot or Mild sauce with that pitiful truck you have.

I have the others (Ford, Chevy) give their nose up to my ride and then I lower my back window, open sunroof, then all four other windows and ask can the domestic do that? I use my truck as a truck sitting in Wal-Mart parking lot while I was waiting on a tow truck. Mickey stop being Jealous you can buy a American Truck to. Funny thing is I was towing my boat last weekend with a Tundra behind me with a smaller boat. Well with cruise control set he was tailgating on the downhill and flat. But the funny thing is he was no where to be seen when there was a truck passing lane on the hills. At the Ramp i asked him if he wanted to go first incase he needed help getting up the ramp. He didnt think it was funny!! I was being sincre. It turns out the rear window that rolls all the way down is to exit the vehicle when it is at the very bottom of the ramp, right Mickey. Jokes everyone has them, just about all of them start with "Nice Trundra, does your wife know your driving it?" Good job guys!

What really gets me is those lincoln trucks and Harley Davidson trucks they don't dare to use as a truck. Did I mention they wasn't the best looking vehicle out there. My truck rides quite well.
