I am happy with my Dodge. I expected better fuel mileage hauling the trailer. But at the same time the new 6.7 needs mods 
Im going to do a little moding to it and see what it does for the mileage. If I can get 11 out of it hauling Ill be happy. But at 8.7 to 9.1 hauling sucks!

sorry, it was the tacomas that have the issue with speeding up even with brakes applied, and the siennas with swingin doors. the tunda just has failing torque converters and tailgates falling off

The new Tundra's have some cool tailgates. There is no way it can fall hard when your putting it down. They have shocks or something in them so they come down real soft and easy.

I've driving one here at work, they're nice. Nice interior, nice smooth ride. But i'm not crazy about the exterior or toyota in general. If i had to buy a truck it would be chevy/gmc or maybe a nissan...maybe maybe if i was to get a GREAT deal a ford.

Oh by all means there are faster trucks out there...ie the truck Parrish built, or your possibly? (I didn't see what is done to it but just saw the sig pic) But stock? No, not really. My point was those trucks main purpose is to be fast, not tow a lot or other general uses for trucks, for example a F350 or possibly this haha...
