Titanrig MUST be a woman! No self-respecting, testicle-hanging man would ever buy a TUNDRA.

Sorry, but I didn't see any "hater" comments yet.

J/K - I currently drive a Ford, but I'm not anti-Toyota or anti-Nissan. At the time I bought my truck, the F150 was the best 1/2 ton on the market. If I was buying a new truck right now, I'd probably be looking real hard at the Tundra. Congrats on the new truck.

I think that's great that you went from a titan to a tundra it shows your growing up and when you become a man you'll but a real truck like a Ford, Chevy or Dodge. Some day you'll look back at some old picture and say Mom why did you let me go out in public driving a vehicle like that. We all did crazy stupid things when we were young.

Have about 3500 miles on mine and get about same empty mileage (16-17). I will be towing my 8500 lb trlr next weekend in the Texas hill country and will report. The road has plenty of hills, and sharp turns, so I will get a good feel for how good a choice I made. I love it for regular driving.

And some of us have a little more growing up to do. When I was in school, I learned "you're growing up" is proper grammar, and not "your growing up".

I won't say a word


Serously, Sorry you had problems with the Titan...was it an 04?
I could not justify the price of the Tundras. Good luck with it.
GO EASY ON THE TAILGATE.

I saw the Tundra at the Seattle Auto show. The interior is very impressive and the dashboard made the Chevrolet look a little dated and cluttered. The engineering and marketing of the Tundra puts it a step ahead of the GM 5.3, and Ford 5.4 offerings. The 2008 Chevrolet 3/4 with the 6.0 engine is more than a match for the Tundra. I think it remains to be seen whether the Tundra can match previous Toyota offerings in reliability.

Wow, I took this as just kidding around and comical. Some of you guys need some thicker skin. Drive a Dodge for a while. That will put some serious hide on your carcasses
