Tundra is built for and by a hidden cloned Dark Side Imperial Force of the dismantled Galactic Empire. It is now learned that this cloned Imperial Force(I-Force) has set up shop in areas of the Virgo Supercluster, one shop unfortunately began in Earth's Japan in 1934. George Walton Lucas Jr. is making a movie which shows the importance of not giving power to the I-Forces Toyota, most notably the Toyota Tundra I-Force Ground Vehicle.
The 75' - 83' Toyota Hilux ground vehicles appeared to have gone astray from I-Force for good cause.

crash rating and the camshaft issue, it must take someone really special to go out and buy one today.
 
Fortunate for Toyota these individuals exist today....

"Special", indeed. As in "Special Olympics".

Dismal is a strong word.
 
See: http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=800
 
Not too shabby. Still waiting on the Silvy/Sierra to be tested or maybe I just couldn't find it on their site
 
The only thing I did find on the Silvy/Sierra was from the 99-06 ( & 07 Classic models) : http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=4

For some reason you seem to think that the ratings on the GM twins matter to me. They do not. There is no denying the four star rating that the Tundra received. On top of that the camshaft failure. Pretty dismal for a truck just introduced.

Not yet. I'm still on the fence about whether to find a single cab, 2WD short box 5.7 to build up. They don't exist in New England so I'd be heading south to buy one. I'm mostly a Ford guy when it comes to trucks, but driving my buddys 5.7 DC has me sold on the Tundra.
 
At the moment I am just a spectator...

lol, aren't you contradicting yourself?
 
That's like saying I don't mind a noisy V8 engine, but there's no denying the fact that GM V8's have been plagued with piston slap issues (which make it sound like a noisy, clattering wreck)...
