Damn dude, it was just a joke. This is the off topic section...right? Threads stay pretty much on track in the "Brand News" section.

ok.... [&:]

anyway... despite the bias in the video, its still obvious the truck shakes more than it should and there is documented evidence of the problem. Lets not go into this, "its a truck, what do you expect" crap.

This video is obviously Ford biased and no Dodge product was present, it does show how flimsy the frame of the Tundra's seem to be. The weak frame could be the cause of so much shake.

I was going to post that.


During the last few weeks, we have been commuting between Ft. Lauderdale and Miami on I95. I see TONS of these new tundras everyday, and just from seeing these drive, I can tell they have some SERIOUS design flaws in the rear suspension. Whenever I see one hit a bump, all you see is tons of box movement and the rear end gets squrily. I have no doubts about whether or not the first video was real, but the second one is fake.

Its not fake. Its a camera sitting on a surface, inside a truck with terrible quality on a bumpy road... which shows the terrible quality. Kinda hard to show this without being on a bumpy road. Think about it people.

I can guarantee you my club cab Dakota would not bounce like his is. I rode far worse roads than that to work every day last summer and even with the waterbed front suspension on the 3rd gens it was better than that. How about a comparison of bed and rear suspension bounce on Chevy Ford and Toyota? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWjTbiYo3x0
