No way in hell fat ass truck stock will run a 14.3 or faster. Not to use magazine racing but http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...re+page-5.html I guess they can't drve................. No "stock" regular truck will run that quick sides maybe an srt10 or a harley davidson edition or lighting

Learn to search. Google/Yahoo/MSN.............. all kinds of options. You'll be surprised at what you can learn (even if you are a hick). Nevermind I give up.. your right it's not stock its "souped up"

i've heard of a few of those POS tundras doing alow 14's stock

[ZAPFOOL!!]

they tundras or damn quick for a normal truck....basically what the Hemi Ram was trying to do.....and its not like the fast class of truck is that large so a tundra can surprise some people

[big hammer]

the hemi ram is slow-as-shit

I guess they had to try and do something to get people's attention, seeing as they are trying to break into a market dominated by American manufacturers, all of whom have been building trucks longer than Toyota has even been in business. They have been perfecting their product lines for generations, and Toyota decides to just jump in head first and try to get a chunk of the profits, its a joke.

So basically they ended up with an ugly ass, overpriced, unreliable truck that does nothing well at all. They have been having all kinds of problems, first the motors were throwing camshafts (yes, literally, cams breaking in the heads), then the transmission problems, then the tailgates falling off, and of course the infamous Youtube unlevel road test that shows just how weak the frame really is, where the cab and bed contact each other and give it a new paint job. They claim it can tow 10,000lbs, I wouldn't trust putting half that weight on that truck with its weak frame and 1/2 ton spec.

As for it being "fast", thats pointless. Its a damn pickup truck, if you want to go fast, you don't buy one in the first place. A 14 second pickup truck means nothing when it comes to real world truck applications such as towing, hauling, and off road use.

I think dodge may be coming out with an SRT-8 ram which would be the 425 horse 6.1 hemi. That might be interesting. SRT-8s are impressive in all the currently available packages (jeep grand cherokee, magnum, charger, challenger, and 300)

Exactly, I'v watched a couple of chevy vs tundra's on youtube and it isn't even close. Makes me happy I own my silverado and not some p.o.s tundra that's "quick"

while i agee with you that the tundra is a POS, a truck built for work and having the capability to run a low 14 would be nice to have. so here i am waiting for gm to build something people like me want. i had an 04 chevy with a 5.3. nice cruising truck but definately not an engine meant for towing. shit even if i put my snowmobile in the box it would be shifting in and out of overdrive and it's only 500 pounds.

The 6.0L trucks with the LQ9 will walk all over a Tundra, all day long. Shit, my dad got a ticket racing one a couple months back. Dude got the jump on him and everything, yet he went flying by em somewhere around 45mph.
I've driven one of the SRT-10s, and there slow as shit. The only one worth anything is the manual (which has its downfalls for sure) regular cab. The crewcab is slow as piss.

[180ls1]

LOL yeah it's not bad for the money i have into it. about 4 grand all together including the price of the truck itself.

i'd like to try a new gtech but would like to hear from somebody who has one

i have one and it works well i have never compared it to track times but most all of the tests say it will be no more then 1 mph and 1/10 different from what the track says. I might be interested in selling, i just dont use it now that i have a radar detector on my windshield.
