I wish they would stop the delay, because I would probably be one of the first to own one. I had to trade-in my Thundra Crewcab, V8 engine in Nebraska, because I bought a large fifth wheel. I could have cried to leave it on the car lot. I had to buy a Ford F-250, because I didn’t have the option to purchase a Toyota Diesel Dully to pull my camper with. Let me know if ya’ll need test drivers to ride around in the Toyota Diesel Dully here in the USA. My husband is sooooo excited and can’t stand it anymore. He is patiently waiting for the monster truck to come out. I called Toyota to inquire about this back in 2007 when we had to give up our Thundra. I told them we needed a Toyota Diesel Truck that can pull large campers. This will be awesome!!!!!!!

as a present owner of a 2004 toyota tundra trd ive been looking forward to having this truck hit the market. i dont think they should mess with our heads. i love my tundra and its the best truck to have but the more toyota waits, the more truck boys like you and me that want that diesel power and will most likely buy a powerstroke, duramax, or a cummins. JUST GIVE US TOYOTA OWNERS WHAT WE WANT!!!!!!!!

I have owned my Toyota 4Runner since purchased new off the lot in 1998. I have been waiting at least the last four years for a 3/4 ton or better Toyota Truck that has over 20mpg on the highway in automatic. I am currently serving in the military overseas and notice that many of the Toyotas out here are deisels. I have been holding my money and waiting on the promised hybrid, and now the possible diesel truck since then. But, I am starting to loose faith that Toyota is keeping track of consumer’s needs. Toyota, if you don’t come up with at least one of your promises by the beginning of 2010 then I will have no choice but to buy from the competition who is moving forward! You need to answer to call…or go home!

I wholeheartedly agree Ken. I don’t have a need for one but what you put out is true.

I just looked at the 1 ton diesel powered Tundra on this site, and I saw straightaway big competition to Ford and the others. That is one fine looking truck. Toyota, if you don’t build that one you will be shooting yourself in the foot. Think of all the retirees out there jerking fifth wheel trailers down the road. What are they pulling them with? Yes, your competition. There are also plenty of others out there making a living with their trucks, oilfield hotshots, ranchers, and so on. If you can make that thing get excellent fuel mileage, I bet they sell like hot cakes.
A light duty diesel in a 3/4 ton and standard Tundra getting 25 plus mpg is bound to get attention too.
Don’t leave the diesel idea on the back burner too long.

This really sucks of you toyota to be a quitter.. Especially now that diesel is low priced and Obama is on the bandwagon to produce algae Bio-diesel and other alternative bio-diesel. I was going to purchase a HD tundra diesel when my lease expires on my tundra i now own.. Throwing in the towel is so retarded i want to barf on the CEO’s at toyota..
Quit teasing us and get down to buisiness.. If this tundra was run on algae biodiesel it would have nearly NO emissions.. Also it’s time to step up and produce a real heavy duty truck not another japanese small car.. Check your market and ask around.. Alot of people would buy a toyota HD tundra just based on toyota’s name and longevity.. The gas tundra was under-engineered and i can’t wait to give it back when the lease runs out.. Time to step up to the plate..

I do wish that Toyota doesn’t back of the LD Tundra Diesel!
At present I’m not a Tundra owner nor am I a Toyota owner but I was completely hook line and sinkered in by the thought of a LD Tundra Diesel by late 2009 early 2010. I have been a fan of the Tundra line for about a year & half now and thanks mainly to you guys at Tundra Headquarters its been branded into my brain even more. I’m form the Caribbean and diesel engines are No.1 when it comes to all round dependability. I do think that a marriage of two A1 mechanical products just might be in the best interest for Toyota who knows there might just be more folks out there like me just waiting for a LD Tundra Diesel (Goose Bumps).
