RE: Toyota Trucks...
Until Toyota can build a cab large enough for even a 6'-2" tall guy to drive, I will never buy anything from them. Just last year I was with my sister as she was buying her car and I sat in every new truck they had on the lot, even they're biggest SUV's. Nothing provided even close to enough head and leg room. The dash was at waist level and the wheel hit me in the stomach.Granted that was last year, and I haven't been in a new Tundra yet, but I don't care how much power they say it has or how big they say the rotors are, being able to even drive the stupid thing comes first.
I've got plenty of room in my truck, and it's just a RCSB.
rob[GL], you gotta know what I'm talking about.

RE: Toyota Trucks...
Well I stopped by and looked at the Tundra last night. The interior room is pretty cramped in the back seat of the quad cab. It looks kinda funny in real life, on the commercials it looks pretty neat, but thats all about the angles, kinda like myspace. I dont think I will be trading my 05 anytime soon.
I think Dodge will start offering the 6.1 Hemi in trucks before too long. It is a logical step.
And my daily driver is a 92 Honda Accord with 201k miles on it. I cant deny the reliability. The previous 2 accords I had, a 91 with over 320k miles, and a 93 with over 280k miles. Of course a dependable four cylinder is easy. 340 + horse V-8 will be a real test.
oh and my 92 is for sale......looking to get a civic.......

That said, every vehicle lineup has space issues. I have leg issues on virtually every car...

RE: Toyota Trucks...
One thing I have realized between being a member of the toyota forum from previously owning a Tundra, and the Dodge forum...is the Toyota people seem to be a much more mature class of individual. When you all start getting into these arguments of the Dodge vs the Toyota it sounds like a bunch of whiney rednecks pissed off because toyota has come out with some compeition.
Get over it. They have a GREAT product that, well, from looking at the numbers, shows to be more powerful then a hemi, and as far as reputation of quality, Dodge isnt even on the same page. I stopped at looked at the new tundras last saturday just for the hell of it. I liked it. alot. and when im done with dodge, which wont be much longer. i'll be right back in the TOYota

Damn!!! You guys take your trucks waaaay too serious. I like my ram (2006 4x4 quad thunder road) but a truck is a truck is a truck. They all have their flaws yet they are all pretty much the same.
Everyone pipe down and cool off..............geez
