It would be good if it did, but I would guess it might be more in line with 140K to 160K sales for this year, either way its a better truck than the previous generation which was selling at about 120K already, so it will definately sell more than that.
And all the talk of it taking over the entire market is dumb, since no matter what Toyota, can only eventually build 300K Trucks with its 2 plants, even if they want to, they can't be the #1 truck sales leader now. But if they continue to do what they are doin, the Tundra will eventually take the same path as the Camry and slowly but surely be on the top, unless the Truck market significantly decreases.

Well put. I think in the next 10-15 years Toyota would be content with being in the top 3 for full size truck sales.
