Lexus put that option on the RX. My driveway is on a slight incline and when reversing into my garage the mirrors were focusing where I didn't want them to. It seemed like a neat feature then I said it's just another mechanical part to wear out over time. I’m not a big fan of the curb view mirrors. Lexus put that option on the RX.

I just want toyota to stay on top! Also sell more trucks... and I really think they need to get a heavy duty and A real True OFF ROAD truck! After all toyota is one of the biggest names in off road! We already have the rock warrior why not beef it up to the raptors level? See what Im saying! Dude I know how great the tundra is! I just want toyota to stay on top!

I'd like to see that challenge too...but instead of going off-road, let's put a load on these trucks and drive them from Grand Junction to Denver and back. I guarantee that after one trip up to the Eisenhower tunnel in the F150 and the same trip in the Tundra, you'll be singing a different tune. sebolt – I don’t like any of the manufacturer websites…I think the best website for vehicle research is probably Edmunds.com.

People look at the bottom dollar figure when buying vehicles and think the 5K rebate is so great but when they try to trade them in 2-3 years later, they say, 'wait, how come the Tundra is worth 5K more in trade in value than my chevy or dodge or ford.' Reason: Toyota does not offer the huge rebates as the big 3 do. They offer just enough rebate, say 1.5 - 3K, to entice customers to buy their vehicles, not to offer such a huge rebate that come trade in time their customers are all pissed that their truck does not hold their value. I do admit though the Toyota website is pretty dull and boring and a little harder to navigate than the others.

Also, forgot to add Toyota Tundra needs a rear locking diffential like chevy trucks have vs. limited slip which is just about worthless. To me, that is a no brainer to just do it. The only truck close to power and performance, reliability remains to be seen, is the new 6.2L V8 in the chevy/gmc trucks. But, for the 4K or so less in price, I'll take my tundra without spending a lot more money just to get the 6.2L in GM (govt. motors by the way). Yah, what Jason said ts8s.

The problem is, buying a Ford means we get left in the dust because we have no power. Buying a Dodge means poor quality and bad reliability. :-) ts8s – Clever response.
