f150 was just showing all us Tundra owners how he lacks knowledge about the Tundra. The hood actually uses 2 pneumatic lifters to open. I'm not saying the hood is really heavy, just that f150 fired off an unloaded gun, once again.
How is the rough idle of that Tundra? Having never owned a V8 truck before the Tundra, you sure pass on a lot of so called knowledge about V8 trucks.
I am sure you have as much knowledge of mechanics from reading that sales brochure as the Toyota mechanics that work on your truck. That fits pretty well.
How about elaborating and enlightening my anti-mechanical self about the advantages your Tundra engine has over any of the big three? Tell me about the advantage of having a belt for timing over a chain or gear. Please, do share with me how your Tundra fuel rail system works...injectors...timing, etc. With all that high quality and technology, why doesn't the Tundra get within 2 mpg fuel economy of the bigger engined and heavier framed full size domestic trucks? How does the overhead cam design work in comparison to overhead valve? This new electronic throttle control your Tundra has...how does it work? How is this new throttle control better than previous technologies?
Bet you can't answer one of these questions with any real factual knowledge, yet you just know that the Tundra is higher quality in it's first year of production. Now, now, no cheating. Don't be so small as to go recruit help from someone who really knows mechanics.
Still throwing stones in a very delicate glass house. Cheer up Robbie, maybe Toyota will build a truck next year that will be some competition to the domestic trucks. They tried stealing from Ford, but Ford caught them and made them play the game with the ideas and engineering abilities that they already had. I guess that is why they ended up with so much less truck than any of the big three.
Good day.
You all can have your topic back. Better post quick though, else it will get shutdown from inactivity.
I guess he realized that his truck was just as wimpy as he was. And he could have bought a real truck - a Tundra. What a loser!
He will be back as Dodgelightfool. Be watching for him.
F150fool "Just the facts ma'am"
is that what you think a truck is for? racing?
your're as much of an idiot as RWELL. why on
earth would a manf. put a racing engine in a
truck for anyway. last time i looked a truck is
for work and haulin' stuff, not racing. guess
that's why the tundra ain't got no haul after
all. geeeez you guys are dumb. you mainly want
torque in a truck engine, not a high end
screamer. and your right about one thing, the
big3 do not want anyone to get hurt. that's why
they build safety features into their vehicles.
now let's hear something about the tundra ABS
system that this topic is about if you can give
us any input at all. so far this topic has been
nothing but insult type post from the tundra
crybabys. or is F150 really on track in saying
that none of you know squat about trucks let
alone the mid-sized tundra?
...red
chance, go back to my earlier post and tell me if
i can buy a tundra the way i described.
or are you gonna dodge me again and not post here
for 2-3 days as usual. i'd ask about the ABS
system this topic is all about but, i've done so
too many times to repeat myself again and again
as it seems no one is even here to talk about the
tundra and it's capabilities. all that's going on
here is a bunch of useless bickering.

A: The idle is very smooth. Are you referring to the low RPM's? Where do you get that idea?
Q: Advantage of having a belt for timing over a chain or gear.
A: Smoother operation in all weather. Ever wonder why Harley-Davidson replaced its chain drive with belt drive?
Q: How does the overhead cam design work in comparison to overhead valve?
A: Simple, no push rods, less parts to break, greater efficiency. Today's technology VS 1950's technology.
Q: How is this new throttle control better than previous technologies?
A: They all have some form of electronic throttle control. Better electronics make for better efficiency. Like I said, you guys don't have a clue
I ask for factual mechanical responses and you give the same cracker jacks crapola that your above average Toyota salesman would give.
Nice job.

Oh, and don't ever plan on rebuilding that engine.
They are like all [non-permissible content removed] and Tiawanese parts....use
once, then throw away."
F150Rules:
For as long as I can remember, people looked for
anything made in Taiwan, Korea, China, Japan, etc.
Stayed far far away from it because the products
were made cheap and with slave labor. They still
have an element of that name of use once then throw away.
time. said to ask you a question(s) and what
happens. -0- thanks to tundraguy and dogster,
you guys don't take on the stupidity awards and
win. "thanks obyone for exposing f150" ha ha
you can't even do that one on your own. sorry
Bama but you are nothing but a first ckass loser
and a total embarassment to toyota.
just a wannabe and always will be. thanks for
showin' everyone that you don't have anything but
a total lack of knowledge. now go cut and paste
some more of your stupid posts that have no
meaning.
...red
I only wish I knew of this guy you keep stammering about in your stupidity stupor. At least then I would probably see someone else that makes sense. He would have to if you disliked him so much.
You must be very lonely not having anyone like you. Ignorance is bliss, I guess.
How about answering the questions melodramatic man.

"yaaawn. I grow very tired of coming to this
topic. Think I will move on to some more
interesting areas. Tundra topics are dead without
any other big three in here and it seems the big
three that used to come in here have grown tired as
well.
You all can have your topic back. Better post
quick though, else it will get shutdown from
inactivity."
F150rules: Your definetly not a man of your word are you?
Still dodging my questions melodramatic man?
I don't need to "fib". You and your truck speak for themselves. All hype and no delivery.

HEY, wakeup and pay attention to this soap opera will ya!!! LOL

The facts: I have owned a Tundra LTD since last Oct. Racked 14.5k miles so far with not even a skip on the CD. Love this truck! Driving at high altitude thru mountains, (sharp curves and pulling nothing, daily going from 8.9k' down to 5.2k' and up, heavy on the pedal), has really trashed my tires but seemingly too soon. They are bald. I do lots off weekend off-roading too but I don't think that's as rough on rubber as asphalt, I can't say.
Any advise or experience welcome unless, of course, your reply is like so many others seen here: Nonsensical brand bashing. This is a Tundra forum last I looked so honest Tundra experiences are what I'm hoping to find or general tire knowledge, otherwise, please stay in your truck.
Thanks in advance
"You all can have your topic back. Better post

Obyone: (r u the same guy?) I have rotated every 3k and keep 29 lbs up front and 27 in rear as recommeded/maintained by my mechanic. All four tires are cupped, all bald at 14.5k. Gone!
I looked at another Tundra with 10K and the tires looked better than mine at 5k but still older looking than 10k. Has anyone replaced yet? Any recomends for a tire that can better handle this torque?
Tundradude: did you get the Mich LTXs stock or did you already replace your BFGoods?
Obyone: I realize the stress I put on my tires is higher than average but I did the same drive with a 4runner on LTXs without any noticable probs.
I'm thinking we might be on to something here...
You were a boy scout, weren't you?
What happened to post #321? Some idiot posted a hopeless attempt to act like he isn't bothered.
We all know the truth.
