Actually that test is to display the superior diff assembly in the GM and has nothing to do with keeping the tires planted. That is why it is at the Eaton proving grounds since Eaton designed the G80 that GM uses. The Tundra got stuck because its limited slip is not as good as the G80.

Each bail weigh 1000-1200lbs. Thats what I haul on a daily basis, no problems whatsoever.

Also Car/ Truck of the year competitions don't mean a whole lot. I mean come on they have a category for looks and how many cup holders it has. Looks are important for a sporty car. A truck give me a break. I personally wouldn't buy the Chevy or the Toyota even though I think they are nice trucks. Just not the truck I'd spend my money on.

You are the exact reason why internet information is so unreliable, lying just to convince people you are right. Show me those bails on a scale- those exact ones, then show me a video of you towing them, highway, uphill, stop and go, then I want you to show me you doing it every day for 1 month.
After that you can post pics of your LS1 RX7, 03 Cobra, Tahoe, 350Z, Ford SD and this Lotus engine swap YOU just finished all in the same picture.

"After recalling 1 million vehicles worldwide in July, Toyota Motor Corp. faces the bruising prospect of more recalls in the United States.
The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into reports of excessive wear of a front suspension part in 2003 and 2004 Toyota Tundra pickups.
The agency said Monday that it had opened a separate probe into 2004 and 2005 Toyota Sienna minivans after receiving reports of four injuries that occurred when the liftgates shut unexpectedly.
The investigations deal a fresh blow to Toyota, which was rebuked last month by the Japanese government because of the growing number of recalls. They are up sharply in the past year and a half, threatening to undermine Toyota's reputation as the industry benchmark for quality.
In 2005, its U.S. recalls doubled after the Japanese automaker recalled 775,000 light trucks, including Tacoma pickups and Sequoia sport-utility vehicles, due to potentially loose ball joints in the suspension. If the ball joints separate, the driver can lose control of the vehicle.
The U.S. safety agency's upgraded probe focuses on the same component in as many as 219,522 Tundras that were not covered by last year's recall.
"We are cooperating fully with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration," said Ming-Jou Chen, a spokeswoman for Toyota Motor Sales USA.
The agency's safety review is a three-stage process, starting with a preliminary evaluation, as in the case of the Sienna liftgates. Three-fourths of those reviews are concluded without further action.
The others are upgraded to a second phase, called an engineering analysis. Seven in 10 of those upgraded probes lead to recalls.
"This tarnishes their reputation a little bit," said Eric Merkle, forecasting director at IRN Inc., a consulting firm in Grand Rapids.
"Toyota is viewed as the pinnacle of quality. That isn't something they established in the last year or two. They did that over 30 or 40 years, and it doesn't go away overnight," Merkle said.
Riding on a reputation for top quality and reliability, Toyota has increased sales rapidly. Last month, it overtook Ford Motor Co. in the monthly U.S. sales rankings for the first time. On a global basis, it seems on course to overtake GM within a few years.
But analysts question whether Toyota's rapid expansion has undercut vehicle quality.
In July, Japan's Transport Ministry told Toyota to review its recall procedures following a criminal investigation into the response of three Toyota managers to reports of defects. They are alleged to have known about a steering problem in Toyota Hilux SUVs years before a 2004 accident that may have been caused by that defect.
Toyota says the managers acted appropriately. But it will increase inspections and add engineers to check problems that might cause accidents. It plans to store information about problems for 20 years, up from 10 currently. And in cases where it deems a recall unnecessary, Toyota will monitor the vehicles more closely."
Man, you really should read that ****.

What are you talking about Lotus swap? IF your referring to the suggestion I made to a board member, then yes he should do the K20 or 2zz swap for his Lotus.

My reactions where based on his assumptions that S2k's are slow. Of course it would be when your comparing it to a car with an aftermarket turbo system. If your going to call a car slow, compare it to what your car is stock!
Most 4cyl import cars with aftermarket turbokits, would not loose to an SRT8 Jeep especially on 15psi of boost. We tuned a K20 last week with a GT40R that made just under 400hp on 10psi of boost. We also are in the process of installing a HorsePowerFreaks turbo kit on an M3 that should make 600rwhp on 13-15psi of boost.
