Have you ever seen a Tundra? Do you even know what one is or looks like? It has a straight axle in the back, it doesn't need a swaybar.
where is this going?
GM offers trans coolers...but they are not needed...the trucks of yesteryears didn't have them and their engines were fine.
The new version of the Ado goes up to 9300 lbs for towing..(is that more than 7200?).with the HD's going to 15,800..(I tries to see what Toys HD's would pull)
Ramble on all you wish..
you guys put up a hell of a show..

take any ado...don't get the factory setup....get an aftermarket hitch.....
and I assure you it will be fine with the stock springs and no tranny cooler..
you try too hard to read into things and make the Tindra come out on top..
but again....what do we care?...we didn't get suckered..errr..I mean buy one!

By the way, I did find in the Tundra owner's manual where it says the same thing that's in the Sequoia owner's manual. Use a swaybar and don't tow over 45 mph. However, it's one of those caution boxes to save Toyota's butt if someone ever gets killed while towing. They can fight it in court with that if somebody tries sueing them. Some other warnings: "Never tap into your vehicle's hydraulic system as it would lower its braking effectiveness." Ya think! "Never turn off the engine to coast down hills. Your power steering and brake booster will not function without the engine running. Also, the emission control system operates properly only when the engine is running." Really, I didn't know that. I'm sure this means nothing to you though. It will go in one ear and right out the other.

I can't really trust mags.. I believe on what I see and experience on my stuff.. I count my lucky stars there aren't that many I don't like..
93 posts, can yall make the 400 by Saturday?
Why do think the gap between lemons and reliable new cars has narrowed so much over the past couple of decades? It’s not because the UAW said to their people, “Come on folks, let’s work harder and make better cars for the American public.” It’s because the foreign companies built rock solid cars for a reasonable price. Open-minded Americans have made the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry the best selling cars in the US because they are the best made cars in the US. I don’t count the Ford Taurus because if you subtract it’s fleet sales, it wouldn’t be close.
I’ve owned Fords and Toyotas. Every once in awhile I give the American cars another chance. It’s usually a mistake. Toyotas are better. When I get the chance, my current Ford is getting replaced with a Tundra. Mostly because the Tundra is the best full size (yes, full size) option out there; and partly because I’d rather not be in the same group as some of the people on this list. Good luck on this one now.
ROFLMFAO!!!

engine to coast down hills because your power steering and brake booster will not function without the engine running. As if all of these warnings are somehow put in to protect Toyota in a law suite (BTW I agree with). It seems all of these things are pretty much common sense. Only an idiot would tap into his brake system, or turn the engine off going down hill. It seems to me you are saying - it is obvious that the Tundra needs a sway bar and should be limited to 45 MPH when towing - that any idiot should know this. Some how I do not think this is what you were trying to say.
Hay Bamma-
After reading the same post from you 50 times that the Tundra is a heavy duty truck that can tow 7,200 pounds - straight from the factory. What are you saying now? Did your Tundra come from the factory with a standard sway bar? Did you know your Tundra was limited to 45 MPH when towing? Seems like you got the short end of a small stick. I never considered the Tundra to be full size - but these tow limitations prove it.
I miss rube! At least he wouldn't lie about having a '52 and steal his truck pictures from another website.
G.M. just laid off 10% of their salaried work force. They dropped their oldest product line (Oldsmobile).
'99 sales ytd vs. '00 ytd.
Chevy Silv & CK " " up 3.3%
Tundra " " up 291%
or
October of 2000 vs. October of 1999
Chevy Silv & CK down 15%
Tundra up 19%
The word is out about the Shakerado. The '99 is already a used vehicle to avoid (Consumer Reports). The '00 was given a -90% predicted reliability. Chevy better get their act together soon or it will be the Big1.
