Default Tundra hype

Theyre no all what the comercials say they are.....

I know street racing isnt the most mature way to dispute ones tuck/cars reputation...but

I was coming home from work the other day and just so happened to run into one of these so called "badass" tundras..you know the the one out of the commercial where the narrator sounds like a biker..I pull up to a redlight and theres a tundra..Im just siitin there with my radio blasting RamJam's black betty happy to be almost home...it was happy hr soon i couldnt wait....i look over and its the new tundra.....the guy stages me at the light so by natural reflex I lined up...light turned green I punch it...after 2nd gear I had him by a door...next light...I could tell the guy was either shocked or pissed that I got him off the line....we go again...and again I have him by a door...after the second time we went we were gettin close to a residential area so I just let it go...
Oh yeah and that night at the bar i pulled an 06 Ram 3500 dually out of the mud...with street tires....

07 Rammasaurus Rex 1500
3.7L V-6
K&N...thats it
other than all I run for Oil in my truck is Castrol GTX

Meh, these 6ers can scoot if you step on them right. And if you're racing the 5.7 version of the Tundra, there's always the chance he could snap a camshaft

Well, the first and probably most important question is, do you have a stick or an auto?

And guessing from your sig, it's a Hemi? I imagine the 6er's act a little different than the Hemi does.

And someone that knows a stick inside and out will leave someone with an automatic eating fumes all day long. (I drive an auto too)
