I thought they might be reasonable on gas with the 6 speed auto tranny...

Maybe your just using as much of that 400hp as you can.

Looks nice., but too big for my taste buds... Maybe if I actually had a need for truck.

I too took my truck in for the TSB last week and the dealership gave me a new Tundra dbl cab 4x4 to drive for a few days. The truck has no shortage of power and is wicked fast. On the down side it sucked gas like crazy.

I can see why somebody would even think about buying a 2X4 truck nevermind a Tundra. Kind of defeats the entire purpose

What purpose would that be?

probably the whole "better have and not need, then to need and not have" thing. in that case maybe all vehicles in the world should be 4wd mandatory at no extra cost.

some people just dont need it or want it.

^Yeah, that's what I was getting at. Oh well. Don't want to get into that ridiculous debate again.

I, too, am thinking about the Tundra. I have two friends with '07 DC's and they are just awesome trucks. One guy even traded his in after owning an '07 Tacoma TRD OR for only 4 months (only lost $600 on trade in, too).

my buddy just got one like that ... he's getting 8.8 mpg...

but he's still having fun with it.
