Toyota Tundra pick up

Post by Bristolian »

On my way home this evening I saw a Toyota Tundra with red plates and obviously brand new.

Maybe I normally drive with my eyes closed but this is the first Tundra that I have seen in the LOS. It looks to be the same size as the Ford Ranger.

I assume that it's an import? Is it any good? If anyone has first hand experience of this truck I would be interested to hear opinions of how it compares to locally produced pick ups.

I've just checked it out on Google Images. Your right, it does look very Rangeresq, apart from that ugly nose spoiling what is otherwise a very nice looking motor.

Only Joking but what did RR used to say. "If you have to ask the fuel consumption, then you can't afford the car!"

I agree it looked fuel hungry and probably out of my sights but........ It did look good!!!
