I am in the roofing business. We have about 6-7 ford F250's in our fleet. We also have some chevy's. We do not replace our trucks until they near 300,000 miles. Thye usually get to 300,000 miles in 5-6 years and when we get rid of them they still do no thave any major problems. The bottom line is Ford trucks are built well and will last a long time. Yeah the Tundra might have some extra ponies but It doesnt matter. Even the 14 second 1/4 mile is slow when compared to fast vehicles in general. When someone says something is fast I think 11's-12's. Maybe I'm jaded though being into fast cars and drag racing for so many years. My FX4 is plenty quick for me, it looks great, Its comfy inside, its AMERICAN, and best of all its a FORD!

 

That's a big 10-4.

 

youre forgetting, he doesnt like CB talk.



ANYWAYS, i forget who said it in this thread but something was mentioned about how many years ford spent building a great truck , and how short it took toyota. Toyota had 50 years of the big 3 building great trucks to look at in the period of a decade, they "didnt build a great truck in a short time" It would be one thing if they built something nobody else did, but they didnt come up with everything their selves...

 

More Tundra talk here... Its like being in Massachussets and hearing people talk about the NY Yankees

So it does the 1/4 quicker than my F150....so does my Yamaha Riva 1200GPR Wave Runner and my Nissan Altima, but neither can carry a heavy load.
Who cares

 

Mid to high 14s maybe depending on gearing and tires for a stock one, but for pulling a 14.0 I have EXTREME doubts it is "stock." Hell, I guess I could of said my Dakota R/T only had "intake and exhaust" since in theory the Mopar M1 2bbl intake manifold, ported TB, midlength headers, no cats, and 3" pipe are all those

 

This is a reg. cab 4x2 truck. The larger fully loaded 4x4's are running mid 14's. There's no reason to doubt this is a stock truck. For people who don't care, some of you are deeply in denial.

 

Buying a truck for going fast is like being 300lbs and running the 100 meter in the olympics.

 

okay you shoulda stopped at your last post in this thread. it was the only little bit of possibly evidence that one in a million of your lame *** posts you may have s aid something worth reading, but then you tried to do it again and ruined it.

 

Nothing like sending skinny punks back home to tell thier mommy about the fat boy that busted his *** in the 1/4.

 

JBMX.....You know this is the GD section right? Just checking

 

Yes, do you know that this is the GD section? You may be looking for the dunce corner.

 

Where to start.... So Toyota may not have class leadinbg numbers in about any catagory, but yet you mention they put together a package people like. Last time I checked Americans wanted the biggest and the best, and last I checked that was the 150.

Toyota is not the reliability king they are played out to be. For every story of a Toyota over 300k I can come up with 2 Fords with the same. I am 26 and I have personally purchased 2 Dodges, 2 Suzukis, 1 toyota, 1 Nissan, 1 jeep and 1 Ford. Want to know what the most unreliable vehicle was I owned? TOYOTA! Total piece that was in the shop every single month for anything and everything. I was young and stupid and fell into the hype about Toyota reliablity. My Dodges, and my Ford have been the most reliable vehicles thus far and they were also the most capable and had the most room. I have since changed my views and purchase only American vehicles.

Dont get too excited about your Toyota resale value either, Toyota has been throwing out rebates the same as Ford has. Only differnece is Ford is trying to sell a design going on 4 years, Toyota is having to discount a brand new model to get it off the lots. No matter how much Toyota sugar coats it the Tundra release has not gone how they hoped. Yeah they are going to sell the target number they want off the lots, its just taking 8k off with 0% to do so.

 

yeah tundra sux. Its not stock, cause i've raced the same thing and won...

 

I have yet to go to a construction site & see a Toyota............enough said!....all I see is F-150's,250's,350's & oh yes, F-450's..........Ford has the most complete lineup of real trucks on the planet period.............

looked it up from two different places. Now if they say the 2 door version is faster well we have a two door version called the lightning that is pretty quick also and its 4-5 years older!
