^^agreed....i just wish that they would try to make them more unique....like how the titan has that tailgate thats not flat, its got that rising part by the handle. wheres the v8 badge on the titan?, on the tailgate and there might be one on the front door after the word "titan"....i actually wish dodge still put their hemi logo there but it seems no one cares about badges.....

ford has the badge on the front fender and has had it there for a long time. its not a v8 badge but it says like F-150, xlt, 5.4 triton v8 on it for example. and dodge put the hemi badges in the same spot ford has had badges for years, but no one jumped up and said "oh i hate how ford is so clever puttin their badges in a certain spot and then dodge just has to come along and steal it from them."

I don't get it...that Tundra looks nothing like a Dodge Ram...I see no comparison at all.....p.s. look at the picture of the inside where they show the controls to the up/down window and power door locks...they look like about .25 cents.

I think the oldsaying "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" applies here.

Nice vehicle, both inside and out. I think the American manufacturers need to pay attention to details, and improve on overall quality of their vehicles. Because if they don't Toyota, as well as Nissan will take over the pickup market also.
Just my opinion............

Well i dont think that we have to worry about nissan, but toyota is a different story. They are making nicer vehicals. I am just waitign on the sequeia to have the same specs/looks ect as the tundra. We have a toyota now, and if the new sequeia looks and has the engine as the tundra then we will probably have another.

I have my dodge and my wife has a 2007 fj cruiser, hers is a nice ride and the 4.0 will put out some power however the main diffference I see is I feel the dodge is more durable, I am sure that the frame will be a lot strong one the Ram as oppose to the tundra, and lets face it when I take my quad out or go to the dunes there are not many titans or tundra's pulling toy haulers or any major weight, Sure they may be capable of it, but while doing it will they last as long as say a Ram, or chevy or ford. Highly doubt it. The toyota trucks tacoma and old hilux are great for off roading trails but I guess time will tell, I will never switch over because even though they are made in america our American dollar is being imported and converted to yen which I do not feel confortable with. My wife chose her ride. I will be a die hard American car owner until I am 6 feet under.

The Tundra, from what I read, comes with 4.10's stock on the 5.7. The only problem I see with the other trucks is that their crew cabs only come with the really short bed. Only ext-cabs have a 6.5 feet bed. I love the Ram having the crew cab and the short 6.5 bed, and the option for the 8. Others dont.
