Toyota Tundra vs. Chevrolet Silverado - READ ONLY

http://www.800lemonlaw.com/lemonlist.html

Oh what a feeling!!

Silverado Sales for 2000 = 642,119 (does not include 188,907 GMC Sierras)

Now wouldn't simple math tell you that if both companies had the EXACT same level of quality then you would have roughly 6.5 times more complaints on Silverados alone?

I could not find a site where I could find a total number of complaints for each vehicle but I did come across this while looking....

"Herb of Littleton NH writes (4/13/02):
I changed the oil in my Toyota Tundra after driving 4000 miles since a garage had changed it. The filter gasket from the old filter stuck to the engine block, causing an insufficient seal, allowing the oil to drain out. Twenty miles down the road, the engine skipped and I noticed zero oil pressure on the guage. I immediately stopped, but the motor was already toast.
My question is, how can Toyota make an aluminum engine without warning lights and buzzers for loss of oil? This is supposed to be Motor Trend's truck of the year and it doesn't warn you of low oil. Even my friend's old Ford Ranger does that."

Draw your own conclusions, gentlemen...

Do a search on the page for Tundra. You will see some pretty interesting items worthy of current owners complaining.
