The acceleration is the best. The dual exhaust is making the acceleration even better. Mine has about 256 horsepower after a couple of modifications.
0-60 in 7.8sec!!! Some say higher but thier just trying to keep their american trucks out of total embarressment.

Nothing big, clock is in wrong spot. Could have better ground clearence.

I blew away all of the other trucks in its class from the stop light. Even the 300hp. Sierra(Z71). Take it off over-drive and you'll get the best acceleration from zero. In a couple of years ill add the TRD supercharger. Which adds 40% more hp/tq. That way ill never loose to no truck in my class. So far i've beaten everybody who wanted to race in its class and some not in it's class.

Very quiet, very smooth drive and overall quicker than any other truck in its class

Not many except like Steve Sato said It's got terrible mileage; not nearly as good as the claimed 13-17 mpg on the sticker. When driving under normal condition I always get 13 mpg no matter highway or street. My 4x4 Tundra got problems with transmission; If you come to a stop sometimes I hear a "clunk" sound as if someone rear-end me from behind (seems like the auto transmission doesn't know when to shift and at what speed). I ask Puente Hills Toyota in Los Angeles about this matter but they deny everything and told me that basically the car is new and needs time to break-in. I think that's B.S.

Yes for $26500

This is to Roger from Denver, no I don't want a monster truck but I would like the Tundra to have the same front end clearance that the T-100 has, (the model with the large tire package), if you ever get a chance to park next to a T-100 and see which one has a higher front end! We Never hit the skid plate on any large rocks, or cross ditches out in the bush with the T-100, but we almost always hit with the Tundra. It might have the highest ground clearance than other pick-ups on the market, but that's only in the rearend. As far as the price, we were ripped off $1500.00 in the paperwork, and then the salesman tried to take an extra $500.00 from us, I have no faith in the salesman at all, and as far as the service department, they are just as bad in some of the lots. Our packages are different from the ones in the U.S as is our colour choice, one of the many downfalls of living in Canada. Our package is called the V8 package, it's the four door, with air conditioning, cloth seats and so on. The other complaint that I have now is the tire size, up here we are having a really hard time trying to find really good winter tires to fit the odd size P265/70R16, where we live we are close to the snow belt and it's not unusual to get snowfalls of two to three feet overnight, so we need good tires, not to mention where we go up in the mountains hunting and exploring. I don't care what anyone says about the ride, it's not as smooth as the T-100 was, that might change once we get some decent tires on it but until then, we feel every rock and every pothole, and the suspension has no stiffness to it at all, and they don't have any after market shocks yet which makes it difficult to change the ride comfort. Try a T-100 and see for yourself which is the better truck!

Toytota quality, good towing capability,

Poor outside appearance, looks kind of cheap. Too much road noise and feels every rock in the road. Poor off road capability. Ground clearance in the front could be better.

Poor off road tires.

I do a lot of hunting and camping. The off road ability of this truck is not very good. The first trip this year, I tore a hole in my front engine pan on something, and stuck the truck twice and never got off the trail.

I would not recommend this truck to anyone who does any sort of off roading. I do not do any extreme off roading, but I do need a truck that will not get stuck when going over wet grass.

First Truck I have owned.

This is a very high quality truck, much better than the big 3 truck makers.
It is very comfortable and quiet and has plenty of power. I would not consider owning an American truck at this point. I'm not an Arkansas redneck and appreciate quality over tradition. I previouly owned a Toyota Camry 98 and feel like I still do, only now it is bigger and more powerful.

The back seat bench is not that comfortable. My kids don't mind it much but for an adult, it is too small. If that problem is corrected in a couple of years, I may trade for the newer model.

I bought a Tundra Ltd V8 4WD access cab with the following options: Chrome step bars, premium AM/FM/CD/Tape,Anit-lock brakes,Securekey Plus,
powered captain's chairs and floor mats. I ordered it with only these
options because all the Limited's that I could find came with another
$1000 - 2000 worth of fluff options that I did not want to pay for. My
price out the door was $29,500 ($808 over invoice). Maybe not the best price out there but it is still a very good price. When you go in to buy, I recommend ordering one with only the options you want (takes 3 - 4 weeks for delivery) and talk price in terms of dollars over dealer's invoice cost. Don't get suckered from all the games salesmen like to play. I'm sure there's some deals out there better than mine but you will have to search for it and be willing to do a little driving. Good Luck.

Never owned at truck before and would not own one if the Tundra's had not come out.

Smooth, Powerful, Quiet, sure-footed. The Tundra feels like a tall sedan. Roomy and comfortable, this truly is the "Lexus of pick-up trucks" The 4.7 liter V-8 has huge low-end grunt...So much that it burns up the 265/70 rear wheels often...by accident...really !! The truck is powerful yet composed in its appearance. Only the Dodge looks better to me.

The Off-Road version (TRD) has alot of body roll in turns (I'm used to sports cars so take with a grain of salt). The back seat is a little small, and much smaller than the GMC. Like everyone else: the oil filer location sucks.

See "similar products" for price paid.

Toyota strikes again. Don't get me wrong I love America and its industry. And the GMC impressed me. In the end the Tundra won my money due to responsive, car-like steering, head snapping acceleration and excellent fit & finish (great black paint). To drive it is to love it. I was 1-day away from buying a GMC Sierra and decided to give the Toyota a chance.....Couldn't stop grinning.

This truck is perfect for my needs as a one-vehicle-for-all-needs person. I haul motorcycles, firewood and other home-owner stuff + drive 300 mile days. If I were getting a work-truck I would go American (GMC), due to ease of service and parts. The Tundra is designed for families (meaning kids in back) while the GMC is made for working (meaning men in back). The American trucks are bigger, with deeper beds and more ponderous handling. Is bigger better ?? The Tundra does more than I will ever need and feels the best doing it. :-)

It was a very close choice between the Tundra and GMC Sierra. Picked the Tundra for control, quiet ride and acceleration. Both trucks have excellent quality and capabilities. Toyota matched GMC's price !! Got my 4WD, SR5, TRD, Access Cab, V-8 for $25,600 !!

Power, handling, Comfort in the front seat, and 5-cd stereo system (in limited model) Basically it's a good looking truck with TRD package in it.

More than I thought for a Toyota truck. It's got terrible mileage; not nearly as good as the claimed 13-17 mpg on the sticker. When driving under normal condition I always get 13 mpg no matter highway or street. My 4x4 Tundra got problems with transmission; If you come to a stop sometimes I hear a "clunk" sound as if someone rear-end me from behind (seems like the auto transmission doesn't know when to shift and at what speed). I ask Puente Hills Toyota in Los Angeles about this matter but they deny everything and told me that basically the car is new and needs time to break-in. I think that's B.S.

This truck has got the worse rear cab seat in the industry; straight up and no comfort, so don't take more than 3 people in your cross country trip.

Also, the clock location is a joke. you can place a cup of coffee over it.

Basically, lots of room for refinement, but it's a big step for Toyota.

I paid $33,000 out the door. I think it's a good truck but there are lots of rooms for improvement.

I think people should wait for another year before buying a Tundra. I'm sure they'll get better next year. One word of advice: never buy a first model year.

Chevy S10 pickup - no comparison because it's an 1989 model.

Quiet Engine, responsive. Good size bed. 4 doors.

To much road noise, Clock is in bad position. Harsh Ride. Poor fuel mileage
13/17. Changing oil is to difficult due to cover and oil filter location. Does not tow my 5000 lb travel trailer as good as my 1500 Dodge Ram with the 5.9L engine. Kids complain of being cramped in back seat.

Poor Service when bringing truck in for repairs. I have had to bring it in for engine running hot in during summer. They treated me like I didn't know what I was talking about. Kept the truck for two days, put 75 miles on it and did not fix it.

Right side of windshield leaks, and AC doesn't put out good.

Price is too high for a truck that I can not even tow with, without running hot.

I suggest if you use your truck for working or hauling, buy something else.

This is for the Guy that compared pulling a trailer with his Toyota 4.7 and Dodge 5.9. Um... The Dodge 5.9 is good for 245 horsepower, a little less than the 4.7 Toyota (Whatever happened to “there’s no replacement for displacement”). When it comes to fuel economy driving the Dodge is like throwing a brick into the wind with 12-MPG city and 16-MPG highway. I don’t know what you are doing to overheat your truck but my advice is to trade your Toyota in now so that someone deserving can own it.

John, Believe me I do plan on trading it in as soon as the All New Dodge Ram comes out. Until then, I have to suck it up and grunt down the road with my over priced, Ford look alike under powered Tundra.
