I own a 07 tundra which developed dents on the bed halfway between the wheel well and cab and about 6 in down from the rail. I discussed them with the dealership and an auto body shop neither had an explanation. I have also seen them on another promo tundra. Has anyone else seen these?

---

Yes - my bed has a few dents but it's from hauling. Nothing I consider major although the construction does appear somewhat flimsier than I would have liked.

---

mine are about 3 inches around now they're not major just irritating. They started much smaller and have grown over the past year.

yep i had them as well but got them fixed recently. i also have creases in my doors from the showroom floor!!! i was to excited to say anything when i got it. now they say its my bad and im screwed

Here's another one. Different forum. Same sh#t. These dents are pretty shocking and in particular this one....

"First time I washed mine I dented my roof just by leaning on it. Reminded me to keep all four tires on the road!"

I drive Ford only for a reason....

 

Too much rice?

 

I thought they solved this problem after the cracking tailgate issue. It's probably just another "glitch."

 

you gotta build a truck like a truck.

 

I fixed your original post for you, it should have read:

 

I'm not bias to any manufacture but I love Ford and the direction where they're headed and I'm glad I got my F-150 but what the hell is going on at Toyota. I laugh when I see there commercials.

 

Not possible, Toyota is perfect, God's gift to the automotive world, greatest thing ever, blah, blah, blah.

 

its jap crap. problem solved.

 

Not to poke fun, but like mentioned, there is a reason Ford is the only truck in my driveway. I've gone through a Tundra and to me it is thin as far as materials go, doesn't surprise me sheet metal is buckling. Go on Youtube for one and see the bed shake like Oprah's flabby arms. No joke. Sorry man, Tundra was not a good purchase, they don't know trucks, plain and simple. Sell it to some new to trucks dweeb and hook up with a Ford.

 

Toyota stands no chance. I still laugh at all the idiots back in 2007 who thought Toyota would be on top by now. Now if only they could come out with a good mid-size .

 

I spoke to a local Ford dealer about the Tundras a while back, he mentioned that he went to Silver Creek proving grounds to compare the 09 F-150 against the others one being the Tundra, he said after they did the washboard road the Tundra was so bent up that the rear doors wouldn't open and it was totaled out

I just read an article where Chevy, Dodge, and the Titan failed IIHSA crash tests miserably. No mention of Ford or the Tundra. Bottom line, I'll stick with Ford. I have over 200k on my Explorer and it's still going strong and waiting to see how my Effie takes the abuse.
