I test drove the new tundras, they are fast, drive and handle beautifully, take off throws you into your seat if you punch it.... But.... They just dont have the leg room that I need and they are not that great looking... I'll keep my truck, do what I need to do to it to get it running faster than them and call it good.

Couldn't agree more. I find them to be flat out ugly. No matter how well they perform I could never drive something that looks like that.

Seriously they look like the bastard child of a ford and chevy, with a little titan thrown in for good measure!! Performance is one thing but it has look good too IMO

Their interior is crap also...and that coming from a ram owner is pretty sad.

'Eh, I don't know fellas, I think the Tundras look nice. Just like there are plenty of ugly looking 3rd Generation Rams around, there are a lot of ugly Tundras...but every kind of truck has those special trim packages that just make it go boom. There is a black Tundra around here that looks amazing. Has the factory 18" chrome wheels or whatever Toyota offers, and it's got the leveling kit up front, looks very nice. We always seem to be passing one another from opposite directions, but we both check each others rigs out lol. I do like the look of my dodge infinitely better, but I am jealous that the Tundras can tow a lot better.

The difference is that the 3rd gen ram starts out as a nice looking truck with good lines. Granted, if someone puts all kind of crazy stuff on a 3rd gen ram they can make it ugly but as the truck comes to the customer from the dealer it is a nice looking truck. On the other hand, the Tundra just starts out ugly. Its lines do not flow and I don't know what happened to the front end of that thing but that design should have been nixed before it ever made it off of the drawing board.

Yeah, that front end is sad...too bad, because it's got a pretty nice side and rear profile.
