well soi far i have not heard any reall good reviews on the new yota. i have teh motor is good, great power, but the overall truck is not that great. the interior is cheap, the exterior lacks in the looks dept, and other than a good motor not that great of a truck.


i would look into the new GMT900 platform trucks (2007 model GM's) all the engines have received a bump in power, and IMO is a great looking truck (pics don't do it justice) they are great trucks, hopefully my next truck will be a a GMT900 based D-max

Hmm this is the first ive heard of the toyota not getting good reviews, all I know is that interior is still better quality than the domestic interiors ive seen....

Yeah, I hear it has a lot of hp this year and can tow alot. But I like toyotas because if you take care of them right, they will last you a long time. But that chevy duramax is sweet too.:devil:

i went out and looked at the toyota when we were buyin our new truck 2 weeks ago and they are DAMN NICE!!!! we have a 1995 toyota t-100 with 200,000 miles still goin strong...

i just couldn't justify 2 things with them... #1 was the way higher cost then the chevys and #2 the most important for me the gas mileage... the chevy is gettin me 20+ and the tundras was gonna do 15ish... the toyota was def a stronger more powerful motor but it wasn't worth it to me...

honestly any of the new trucks with the exception of the dodge are pretty kickass... i know i love my new 07 chevy and wouldn't trade it for anything!

F-150s are built in Kansas City and Detroit; Super Dutys are built in Kentucky.

If your dad isn't impressed by the new Power Stroke, he's smoking crack!

Really? Right now they have been pulled off the lots for a software upgrade. Watch the video below... Yea, thats a well engineered motor!

...and what is Fords fix for this? Upgrade the software - if it detects this condition, your truck will shut down on you until it cools down or you experience a MAJOR power loss. Nice feature if you ask me! Your pulling a load down the highway, then your truck shuts down.

Where do I sign? I want one! :rolleyes:
