You guys are ******* dumb, the toyota rapes every other truck in its class. They run 14s stock, the American ones run low 16s or high 15s. And I like to go fast, so I'd get the tundra.
And quick complaining about where it was made, your cars were made in ******* canada for gods sake.

You can spin the arguement anyway you want when people use these tactics. uff.
Even though the ASM site was in Canada it doesn't compare to imports that did the majority of the design overseas. Camaros are largely domestic content.
The last time I checked it is better to do business with countries of a similar econ.
We keep pointing out --- sigh
If you do 99.9 percent of the work in Maylasia and asm it here is it an American car?? Let us take in the case of the Sprinter Van which is built in Germany under the Dodge label taken apart and re-asm'ed in Georgia. American or not?? [Hint they did it for a tax break.]
HINT HINT they designed, bought parts, asm'ed, hired all in germany and then brought it here. They made it to where the American Facility was a skelton crew that snapped together the van in a leggo like process. How does that benefit us?

Get out of the import cloud.
The same 44,000 dollar comporablly equipped Tundra does it with 4.30 geas.
The only way it is faster is if you buy the Non-optioned RC turck.

If you like to "go fast" why did you buy a V6 Camaro?

I haven't read this entire thread --
The only thing I'll say is this:
Go watch the 'misleading' Toyota Tundra Ads that talk about its towing ability.....and it IS misleading --
WATCH it and LISTEN to it........
........and then tell me that you don't find this funny.

Well lets put this into perspective, Edmunds tested a 4x4 DC with a curb weight of 5637lb. And note in the link below, the statement under
-Acceleration Comments-
"All the best runs were made with traction control off*, but with prudent throttle modulation to keep the rear tires from evaporating. Wow, this thing is quick!"
obviously implies the runs were made in 2wd mode
Comparison Test: 2007 Half-Ton Pickup Trucks
And when testing the all new Hot Rodded 2007 GMC Sierra Denali with a 403hp/417lb-ft trq 6.2L with a 6sp auto, this is what they had to say:
"this 5,309-pound two-wheel-drive truck hauls to 60 mph in just 6.5 seconds and rips through the quarter-mile in 15.0 seconds at 92.1 mph".
"But the GMC Sierra Denali is not the quickest truck on the market. That title is held by the new Toyota Tundra with its 381-hp, 5.7-liter V8. In our testing, the four-wheel-drive Tundra Double Cab pounds to 60 mph in just 6.3 seconds and runs the quarter-mile in 14.8 seconds at 93.7 mph, even though it weighs 328 pounds more than the Sierra Denali.
Sometimes power isn't enough to guarantee dominance. Or maybe either GMC or Toyota or both are wrong about the power numbers they're publishing."
Full Test: 2007 GMC Sierra Denali
http://www.edmunds.com/apps/vdpconta...8/pageNumber=1
And for the record, the fastest Tundra has run a best of 13.8 for the regular Cab.
Take notes on the weights of the vehicles. The Tundra is almost 400lbs heavier than the Denali, but still traps higher
. Do the math.1) Denali is overated
2) Tundra is underated
Pick one!

What I find amusing is, Ford 150, all of a sudden is rated to tow 11k, despite not touching anything on the truck. Go figure!
Another article I would like for you to read, is the fact that over 20k F150 have been traded in for a Tundra

Care to show any vids, to back up your claim, becuase I can. No, RC 5.3 stock, can compete with a RC Tundra. Its no comparison. Even a bolt on RC 5.3 liter can't match a Tundra. With your mods, can you run low 14's high 13's at 97-98mph?
I have a CM Tundra and Ive run a stock Duramax with an exhaust and simply killed him by 3 cars. Ive run a Dodge Hemi, with the same results. I then ran a silverado with bolt ons and I must say it was quick, but I still edged him by a car and a half. The CM is the slowest of the bunch, but it still manages to pull 14.7 1/4 times at 92-93mph.

. So, the answer is no, your car stock cant compete with one, neither can a full bolt on 5.3.

Your wrong! Edmunds, Motortrend and TruckTrend, all have shown the Tundra to be faster:
Well lets put this into perspective, Edmunds tested a 4x4 DC with a curb weight of 5637lb. And note in the link below, the statement under
-Acceleration Comments-
"All the best runs were made with traction control off*, but with prudent throttle modulation to keep the rear tires from evaporating. Wow, this thing is quick!"

Take notes on the weights of the vehicles. The Tundra is almost 400lbs heavier than the Denali, but still traps higher. Do the math.
1) Denali is overated
2) Tundra is underated

All I did was tell him what a Denali would run. I also said that the one that is faster is the Regular Cab Tundra...You are a ******* idiot. The Denali is a 5800 llbs 4 door awd or 2wd truck. GET YOUR DUMB *** OUT OF THE MAGAZINES AND GO TO THE ******* TRACK!!!
You have my permission to put your head back up your *** again.

They are not misleading. I tow 14k on a daily basis and do it without issues. On the title for the Tundra's, they are rated to be 3/4 ton trucks(states thos on the title).
What I find amusing is, Ford 150, all of a sudden is rated to tow 11k, despite not touching anything on the truck. Go figure!
Another article I would like for you to read, is the fact that over 20k F150 have been traded in for a Tundra

Here is what a new Denali can really do and yes its still bone stock. It also helps to have a driver that can reach the pedals all the way. The same day I was at the track a new RC Tundra was there and it ran a best of 14.10. I never saw it hit 13's. Hey 45 psi! Show me your time slip.
