> [@Beck](#): > > Tundra has better frame design, bigger ring gear, nicer interior, quieter ride, better suspension, much better reliability and fit & finish. That’s quite a bit more than “a little change from the factory”. You do realize that there isn’t any better “design” about them at all? They just made it all larger or bigger. That is good that the ring gear is larger but when is the last time you heard of someone breaking a GM 12 bolt? Frame is larger? I think the F-150 actually has the “largest” frame. Interestingly enough, the GM frame is the most ridged. I guess that would prove who’s frame is best designed. Last time I checked the suspension was the age old system used by 90% of trucks out there. Do they have long term quality testing even available on these trucks? My friends dad used a straight 6 F-150 as a lawn service truck and a personal truck and it lasted forever. So long the only reason he got rid of it was because it was totaled. He got a new Ford and hates it. My dad had a 1500 silverado that he turned into a tow truck back in the day. Yes a 1/2 ton tow truck holy hell. Fit and finish is generally shitty on all cars. The only cars I’ve ever been in that have \*excellent interiors cost over 100K. > [@nelstoys](#): > > Heated steering wheel! Omg thats awsome I hate my cold leather 1 in the winter.

Price has very little incentive, if anything its just a reason for them to get a new truck. NOT picking the gm/ford over the tundra with their first truck purchase ever ---

^Way to bitch about a half ton not being able to tow 10,000 pounds. I guess that makes the F150 a piece of shit poseurmobile too. So Toyota’s marketing is blatantly and overtly fighting to dispell any image of an import truck not being as tough or manly as a domestic truck (could they find a guy with a deeper, raspier voice for the commercials?), yet you all fault GM’s marketing for seizing that concept and trying to hit them where it hurts? I find Toyota’s commercials obnoxious. “Truckers say…” “Big old pat on the back…” _grunt_ :cjerk: ---

No, beck is saying that the tundra is the ultimate end all truck if people are buying a 500hp truck they are retarded. horsepower wont make u tow more shit. Siqqqq,! now u can outrun the other minivans and slower trucks at green lights. how many people bought SRT-10 Rams? imo i think the srt10 ram looks better than the tundra. both have 500hp, both have no purpose other than “i have a 500hp truck, and cant fit a full sheet of drywall in the back” :cjerk: ---

hey anything with 500hp is cool 😉 it works in an suv, works in a car, no workie in a truck if anything it is \< than a “regular” truck because of the limitations that come with those 500horsepowers ---

At least the Tundra can tow/fit stuff in the back. The Syclone couldn’t do anything other than go fast, which I’m not complaining about 🙂 ---

I love Beck’s “facts”. I complete blew up his 1 V6 to every 150 V8s “fact” Now he just picks a random high number and adds a “%” to the end of it. In the same post you stated the only reason someone would buy a Sliverado is price and then you asked if they would swap for a more expensive Tundra? According to any economics book I have ever read, the person should swap 100% of the time and therefore the other 5% would be consider irrational. So I am not sure what you were trying to prove with that post. ---

LOL actually this is the reason why my stepdad bought his camry. hes a fggt. i tried to tell him to atleast get the S package and he said, “no, the price would be higher” And he claims the camry is the best siqest car ever produced ever.
