Maybe thats why Toyota just took GM's share of Isuzu off their hands?!!
 
Now that the Own part of Isuzu they will will be able to use Isuzu dielse Technology
 
And use the Suburu plants that they bought the month before.

Two best new Fullsize Trucks by iqbaldhillon2
Dec 22, 2006 (4:32 pm)

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

If the numbers are accurate it seem like a balanced perspective. The numbers and the performance will be telling but from the reports of those who've driven the new Tundra it seems accurate.

Aaah...no. I think you misunderstood me. The "300/20 Club" means a full sized truck with 300 or more horsepower AND it's rated for 20 mpg or more EPA hwy. Not 320 horses.
Toyota still hasn't released HP/Torque rates as of yet. Jan 8th at the Detroit Auto Show is where and when we'll know the exact #'s. I'm merely guessing/estimating the ratings from driving and experiencing the truck.

Actual Mileage Figures? by ddiggler

Sorry but I did not see a section that I thought this question would fit in. Being new to this forum (not to the discussion concept) may I suggest to the moderators that it is a bit confusing. The topics need re-thinking, I did not see anything when looking to even start a new thread, thus I posted here. Threads that seemed to fit had this "Attention" and then they just had a link that dumped you back into the topic area.
 
What are the REAL figures people are getting as far as MPG city/highway for a 2006/2007 Tundra, V6 or V8 engines?
 
Currently I have a 1991 Ford F250, that served me well over the past years. Was more reliable then my 1986 Toyota 4X4 SR5, however after 180k miles the tranny went out and Im looking at a new truck. Im not crazy about what Ford offers today and Toyota is where I want to be. I see that they dropped a V6 with 4WD, did this mean they had problems and it was under powered? My goal is to find a model that has decent mileage and 4Wd.
 
Thanks

So your saying it can get 381 hp and 405 lbs ft torque while delivering 20 MPG. Thats worth trading in for my Ram.

Usually when they add or drop models it's because the buyers are not asking for a specific combination. It's true that they aren't offering a 4WD V6 but it's because of lack of demand.... and the Tacoma has the same V6 with 4WD.

Just read that the 2008 Tundra will be one of those models that can use the different alternative types of fuel such as is on some of the GM cars already.
 
That would be great.

This post are some of my questions on the Crew Max. 1972ck
will the Crew Max get the same Gas Mileage as the Double Cab? Also will the Crew Max have a longbed option? If so how long will the longbed be? My final question is in January will they still be selling the 2006 Tundra?I've heard the 2007 Tundra comes in Feb. '07.
