Default Consumer Reports?

Is this the most biased magazine ever? I just read their take on the 07' Tundra. They're already saying "it has a smooth, responsive, 5.7 v-8 engine, and gets great fuel economy and over 10k towing."

Then they say the Honda Ridgeline "redefines the pickup."

They act like everything that is American is diseased and shouldnt be touched with a ten foot pole. What gives?

Wait a minute!!! The Toyota plant here in San Antonio will be building the '07 Tundra and the factory ain't built yet!!! They're still hiring people......maybe me!!!

Forget Consumer Reports....they've been touting Toyota and Nissan for decades......[:'(]

No kidding! I remembered them going nuts over the Nissan Titan, then they discovered that it wasn't so perfect. I really, really, really, despise Toyota & CR. Toyota is overrated and gets their hide covered on a daily basis. The only people I know that have had Toyotas are not having the reliability that they have the reputation for having.
