A heart attack? No, a laugh attack.
You guys absolutely refuse to READ. I posted statistics and facts based on surveys and studies...but obviously that doesn't compare to the opinions of a group of Dodge fanatics (I read the posts in your link).
The funny part is watching you guys try to argue with logic...without using reason. What a bunch of little hoes. But you're MY hoes, and I promise not to abuse you too much! LMAO!!!!

Picking up hoes is not exactly why I would buy a truck. Besides, everyone is saying that the Tundra is just a copy of the Ram, thus the title of this thread "2008 Toyota Ram", so calling the Tundra ugly sort of works against your argument, doesn't it? I think the Ram is a bad-*** looking truck, and I think Toyota was smart to model the new Tundra after the best looking truck on the road. Consider it a tribute to the Ram.

Ya, that's pretty pathetic. It's looks like a Laramie Ram (a hideous one). It's got the same front bumper style. Stinkin Japs!!

I say the Ram and new Tundra both drew their inspirations from the same source...tractor trailer rigs like the Freightliner and Mack trucks.

Freightliner/Dodge Ram = same company.... DaimlerChrysler....
Toyota did not just take the fist look from the ram... Give it up... They tried to make their own Ram and it didn't work out...

Hino/Toyota = same company...not many people know that Toyota makes these trucks, and the resemblance to the new Tundra is obvious. Hino Trucks made by Toyota

I think it all balances out in the long run as far as cost is concerned. You pay more for for a toyota brand, and it will run longer before problems arise. But when the problem does arise, it will cost you two arms, two legs, your wife, and kids to get it fixed in some cases.
When you buy domestic brand, sure, it is cheaper, things do go wrong, but it is way cheaper to fix and you get to keep your arms, legs, wife and kids to get it fixed in some cases.
All in all, all auto manufacturers have at least a 3-5 year bumper to bumper warranty that will cover most of these could be mortage payment repairs.
It's looking long term if you want to keep your ride after the warranty period that you can actually compare cost. Imports can cost as much as 2-3 times or more to fix than domestics for a single repair job, no doubt about it.
Who cares about recalls and such, it's free, just cost you a little of your time to get it into the shop to get it fixed. No single maker is perfect. Everyone has its flaws. The big 3 has more recalls because of its overall total vehicles it builds is problaby 10 times more than the imports. So if you compare total vehicles built vs recalls ratios, the domestics and imports are problaby on par with each other.
All in all, when it comes to full size trucks, the big 3 has been in the game since the birth of autos. You still see the big 3 trucks out on the road that are 30 or more years old and and still running! Mainly the truck buyers are farmers and and construction workers. When they buy trucks, its for the long haul way after the warranty expires. They know what trucks will last and last and last. Import makers are just getting their tires wet and trying to force their way in and overtake the big 3 by using their known reputations for reliability. They haven't proved "Reliability" yet as Toyota and Nissan are still new to this market. Granted, their compact trucks are well known but we will wait and see how their big brother trucks stand out in the long term like 15 to 20 years from now.
Also, most full size trucks people buy for longevity are the heavy duty 2500-3500 class. Toyota nor Nissan or any import has touched this segment yet.
