The Tundra and TRD mods.

Ten years in Texas help you figure out that only Ford makes THE trucks! Check out the Raptor, there's a Blue one running around here and it looks awesome!

Thank you all for your comments. Rep for everyone. Are silverados as comfy as the tundra?

Probably more, but the Ram is more comfortable still. If it's your DD I'd consider an Avalanche too!

The Tundra has a weak chassis, I'd stay away.

+1 there. As for a truck I would look at a new F-250 with the 6.7 scorpion.

I DD a 09 Toyota Tacoma, with the TRD package. So Far(70k miles) I love the truck, not a single problem.

All of the diesel trucks that i have come across that are supposedly and one that was truly modded, with those figures of 400+ HP and 600+ FPT didn't stand a chance to a little STOCK Tacoma. The Tacoma's ride, even with the slight life, 3 inch, 33 inch tires, has a great ride. And you just can't argue with a truck that weighs a little under 3,900 pounds.

There are a ton of mods for the truck. There is even a SC from the factory, with a warranty. Surprisingly the truck handles really well if you know how to drive it. If you aren't towing anything, this is the way to go.

Now if you are towing, don't waste your breath with the taco. Get a Ford.

Feel free to PM me with any questions. Good luck!!!

I voted for the Ram...
You are talking about the V10, right?

Mayoof 06-06-2010 01:39 PM

^Nope. Just the normal V8, I don't think they do the Srt10 anymore

As a non-American, and non-Texan, why isn't the F150 in your poll?

In Texas, they seem to outnumber other trucks 2-1.
