Default Got my a$$ DRUG yesterday!

I know it isn't impressive to most but I had a chance to line up next to my dad coming home from work. I was in my '06 GMC Sierra Crew Cab Z71 and he was in his '07 Crew Max Toyota with the 5.7. We rolled through first as he breaks loose pretty easy and at the top of first through 2nd he had me by almost 3 truck lengths.

I think he knows how quick the Camaro is. It stays in his shop. Hell he drove it around last Sunday.

i dont know why everyone is always knocking the tundras. i had a '00 and my friend has a fully loaded '08 and the damn thing is nicer than my house inside. i mean, its insanely in excess, the whole thing. they arent 'slow' either for trucks.
yeh they have problems, but my FRC has had more than his truck.

Nah, that was jokingly. I am about ready to go find a mud hole and have some fun but don't feel like cleaning it afterwards. I want to find the spot where Tony, Brock, John and them went. I bet I will get swallowed in it.

new Tundra's look WAAAAAAY better than the new gen Sierra and Silverado. Just my opinion. I'd never buy the new body style gm trucks. But then again I'd never buy an import car.

Just my opinion bro. I'm looking into buying a new dd 4wd full size thruck and I love the interior/drive train of the Gm's but to me they look fugly on the out side. The prior body style looks waaay better. Truth of the matter I'm prolly 90% sure I'm going with the Yoto b/c of the exterior looks.

The Tundra could be the fastest truck on the planet, and I'd still not buy one.

I too, think the Tundra is ugly compared to the new GM trucks (the Sierra is a looker). I'd buy the Tundra though, love the beefy dimensions and the engine.

lol well it does kinda resemble a Pug from the front but imo looks better than the fugly Silverado. The Sierra looks a bit better than the Silverado but neither looks as good on the ext as the Tundra.

Lmao I work at a Toyota dealership and I kinda like the new Tundra's. The interior on the loaded ones are hella nice. But as my friend has called em since he first saw them. "Man they look like a whale ***** on 4 wheels."
