A few points to ponder: 1. The are many, 100k-200k full-size owners, who are driving domestics/Tacos that have the Next Tundra on their radar screens. Doesn't mean even half will buy, but it will be investigated. Many were waiting for Toyota to offer a Hemi/Triton/Vortex competitor! 2. Toyota has about 500k+ current Tundra owners looking at Tundra 2.0 as well. 3. Toyota car owners generally move to the domestics to get the size/power they want, but become disgruntled with the trade-offs. Toyota can market to these defectors. 4. The 4.7 has almost as much power as the Triton 5.4! 5. The interior is a disappointment, and the grille is confusing, but the sheetmetal itself is tight, like skin- over-muscle. 6. Fleet sales will become more focused this time around. 7. Ford, Dodge, and Nissan are losing share, and GM and 'Yota WILL pick up the pieces. The Titan is done if it can't sell before the Chevy and 'Tundra arrive! DrFill

Replying to: drfill (Dec 21, 2006 6:38 am) Ford acknowledged yesterday, NYTimes article that it was contracting and that Toyota should pass it in 2007 but it was also concerned about contracting too much where Chrysler also passed it. Ford is really really really cutting back; Taurus, minivans, Explorers, F150's, Wixom plant (?), domestic made Rangers in St Paul (?). It may be almost half the size it was 5 yrs ago. GM is on a good streak; Kudo's to the Silverado for MT TOTY ( good job to chevy598 and your coworkers !), Acadia/Outlook, Aura/Malibu, hybrid initiatives and 2 mode system. Do something about the Cobalt!! |

Excerpt from the article: "The Toyota Tundra, voted Edmunds.com’s Most Significant Vehicle of 2007, will take a chunk of large truck market share from the domestic automakers. This is a very profitable segment, so any loss in market share will have a disproportionately large impact financially. In terms of sales volume, Toyota will overtake Ford as the number two automaker in America by mid-2007." |

In my opinion the 2 best fullsize trucks (as of Feb 2007) will be the Chevy Silverado and Toyota Tundra Here's why 1.Both trucks deliver over 300 hp. 2.Both trucks will get 20+ MPG Hwy. 3.Both trucks can tow more than 10,000 lbs. 4.Can take more than 2000 lbs of payload. But here's why I think why Chevy has an advatage against Toyota. Better interior Looks a bit more refined. Here's were I think we can Toyota has an advantage. Indegrated tow hitch 6 speed automatic transmission Bluetooth Navigation
