My dad had a 70 challenger with red seats and dash. Reminds me of that car. I like it. Like the "camo" pattern in the leather.
Other than the giant touchscreen not sitting flush I think it looks great.scd88 said:

I doubt they have finished jumping through all the EPA hoops and nonsense for MPG certification. For pricing just look at the current prices of new Tundras and add 5-10% to the MSRP. The microchip shortage has hit everyone so the new Tundra won't be exempt. My local dealer has had 2 or less (usually 0) Tundras on their lot for over a year now.Max Power said:
Why was the mileage not released? As important as the engine change to a turbo V6 should be its fuel efficiency. My current vehicle is pretty darn near the end of its usable life, and I like the current Tundra for everything other than its awful MPG. Also, pricing projections? Are they shy on that as well because they know they don't have enough? They expect price gouging from dealers?
Perhaps I'm touchy because this is just about the worst time ever for anyone that is considering buying a new or used vehicle. And inflation to boot is going to exceed any salary increases I'll see over the next few years.
Those numbers are above Chevy, Ford, and Ram's base engine numbers.El_duderino said:
Should've just kept the 5.7, paired it with the 10 speed, and then offer the hybrid option. The power numbers for the base ttv6 are pathetic.
The problem is there is no higher engine that is not a hybrid like the others. And if you buy the hybrid, you lose any storage under the rear seat because that's where they put the battery.longeryak said:Those numbers are above Chevy, Ford, and Ram's base engine numbers.El_duderino said:

Sounds like there is a better option to resolve this:Madman said:Other than the giant touchscreen not sitting flush I think it looks great.scd88 said:

The Tundra comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, though drivers can opt for a 14-inch, horizontally oriented center display.
I'm sure 2-3% more HP and 4% more torque will be hugely noticeable.El_duderino said:
I'm comparing it to the ford ecoboost which is 400/500 stock and then even more with 5 star tuning

yup. always been the Tundra's biggest problem. it was due to that stupid "hybrid" frame rather than a fully boxed frame.trailrunner said:
Will be interesting to see real vehicle payloads that are not base 2wd vehicles. I only plan to do light towing so a half ton is fine but in the past when looking at the sticker inside the door on tundras, the payload was very low, I remeber seeing them in the 1200-1300 range...
did not see any mention of a rear locker. that's disappointing. i'm not sure why Toyota has no problem putting a locker in the Tacoma but not in the Tundra.Madman said:
