That one Tundra



381 horsepower and 401 foot pounds of torque. I sell Toyota's for a living. They also have a 6 speed auto trans
 
Nice lol. I think I'd enjoy racing all the vehicles you have. What's up with that duramax you have a vid on your channel? A dmax with a bigger turbo and supporting mods should be well into the 12's. My buddies runs 12.6's all day long

Yea. That Duramax does now have any supporting mods lol. I tried to tell him he cant just install a bigger turbo and call it good. He just does not understand and refuses to listen to me. : \

where all that may be true, the fact still remains that Toyota trucks have the worst seats and interior I've ever sat in, awful to say the least.

my friend dragged me to a toy dealer, to see how the new Toyota stacked up for a landscaping truck, he sat in it for about 2 minutes, had a look of disgust, then gets out and says you sit in there, what do you think? 2 minutes later we left the lot, it was a 35,000 truck over 40 out the door. for a truck thats not even close to being comfortable at all.
 
I have a good friend who is a farmboy, born and raised. We got to discussing the Tundra and he's telling me that Toyota didn't need a 3/4 ton because the Tundra is built as heavy as one. I just LOL'd.

Our shop just landed a contract assembling the front corner modules (caliper, rotor, bearing, knuckle, shield and on some the wheel extension) for the 3/4 and 1 ton GM trucks and I can tell you that there is absolutely no way my buddy is correct. The corner weighs over 125#'s for the SRW assembled. It is huge and it is awesome.

Oh yeah fwiw, my buddy just recently bought a 97 powerchoke.

Asian trucks are a joke. Sure that Tundra may have decent power but it lacks everything a truck is supposed to be. I suppose it's good for hockey dads. Anywho there's my off topic and pointless "contribution."

Oh what a feeling!

a while back at a job i had, the guy across the street was some kinda of contractor, he had a huge ass trailer, had to be 28 to 30 feet long. he had a toyota truck looked to be lifted a bit and larger tires, when the trailer was on the ass sank to the ground and front end was lifting into the air. very nose light, looked like he would have to hit the brakes to steer it.

none the less it took this weight day after day. it was mind blowing.

one day was driving past giants stadium, i saw the tundra test track set up and the toyota truck towing a trailer through the course. i so wanted to stop in and hook up my truck to the trailer and run it, i had my 03 gmc 2500 HD. i know it had to be faster all around, as i towed a 4,000 lb boat, like there was nothing behind me.
