Yeah... there are a couple more videos of that Toyota beating a Ford and a Chevy... I think it is crap, those look like it was filmed for a commercial for the "Toyota of Bellvue" dealership... of course they are gonna want the Toyota to win.

From what I hear, a stock ram hemi with superchips will take the tundra. The tundra has the weight, hp/torque, and traction advantage stock vs. stock though.

Any of those truck "tug o' war" videos all come down to who's got the most traction, not the most power. Crappy tires, or one truck just being heavier than the other will instantly decide the outcome.

the trick to win those is to hold the brake until the other guy spins and then hit the gas. You've got the traction advantage then

I'd race one just to see the Tundra cam explode. I wonder if they leak does rice drain out?

I dunno, do beans leak out of our Dodge's?

Since they are 100% made with parts from MEXICO. According to my Origionation Sticker.

As sad as it is, America has gotten soo expensive, most of the best made things come from everywhere BUT America.

But, I still don't know that I truck a V8 from any of the China/Japan car companies.

Yup. Personally I think the people who make those tests have too much ***** envy for their own good.
