Toyo vs V-10

I had a new Tundra challenge my 2004 V-10 SuperDuty at a redlight yesterday. I don't know where that 400 lb ft is made, but it isn't where it needs to be. Those "trucks" have 4.30 gears and mine has 3.73, but I had him by a fender. With 4.30 gears and 500-800 lbs less weight, he should have embarrassed me...but he didn't. <!--IBF.ATTACHMENT_181196-->

I don't know if they DO call out the engine size on the fender. I've seen them on the tailgate.

I have yet to see any 5.7's.

First, both of you go to the gravel yard and load 3000 lbs of gravel in the back of each truck. Then race him again. That is if his rear bumper is off the ground...

I see these overblown cars running around with big tires on them, but I haven't seen any TRUCKS.

They said 6,400 lbs. in the commercial. (Empty Container)

Its fun to pick on the imports but I'll tell you what Toyota and Honda have a good reputation and are gaining market share every day.

Going by the solo performance data on the 5.7l Toyota 1/2ton a stock V10 SD is not going to blow it away or beat it unloaded, loaded thats a differnet story.
