Down here, they're very previlent. Remember, this is the first year of the full size Tundra. Most of the loggers, tow in excess of 11,000 lbs and are desiels. When Toyota releases is desiel Tundra, we will see what happens. Remember, Toyota owns a percentage of Isuzu. Oh and the last time I checked, the Tundra was up 134% this time from last year, while the big three were down.

I agree, but the problem is, these trucks are standard, with limit slip. Thats a trade off or a risk your taking by doing something like this. Its not the Tundras fault.

If the parts of the bed were unbolted would the bumper still move with the bed. Im not sure but i dont think it would, it followed the bed the whole time, and the bumper should be bolted to the frame...unless toyota bolts them to the bed.

But we will see if Toyotas catch on and can handle the 200k+ of logging road miles, and abuse that the trucks are put through.
The ones you see logging are deisel and not gas. I have seen Tundras with goosenecks on them now, I never seen that before. Matter of fact, I saw one hauling 2 trucks on a gooseneck. Pretty good for a gas 1/2 ton.

Read what they said. They werent impressed with the towing of the Dodge. Especially, all the hype about the Hemi:

Basically they said, it had trouble towing uphill.

So where is the half ton Denali AWD with over 400 HP. **** Toyota.
GM will have a half ton diesel truck here in the next two year. 310 HP and over 500 FT/lbs of torque.
Toyota makes alright stuff, but I still say **** 'em.
