Well guys i havent been on in a while, and i loved my silverado but i decided to get something new, here goes, I bought a new tundra with the 5.7, i know i know let the insults fly, im gonna be a good sport about it. The truck just started to grow on me, and i bought it. Well i will be checking back at this post to see if anyone says some bad stuff about me.
not a matter of IF man just when... and when will be as soon as people read the thread...lol post up some pics and specs on the new ride....
Hahaha well great to have you back. I have to say it take all kinds or it would be a really boring world. I bet it runs nice. I bet it uses lots of gas. I guess now you will change your name? Any mods? Any Pics? Have you run it at the track or against someone?
All that matters in the end is that you like it.:)
get the hell off this site.
haha nah im just playing.
im getting a little less mileage than my silvy, but it does run no question, i like it and i want to run it, but im still breaking in the motor give me 200 more miles and i will let you know
well i didn't want to say anything but i think they are growing on me too. especially the regular cab short beds. put a roll pan on those and they look like a bulldog. real mean looking. and those hp numbers aint too shabby. but i also grew up with my dad always driving a toyota. dont know how i ended up owning three chevy's.
tundra talk guys are tools, they are talking about tornadoes for the intake and crap like that.
lol, the tornado HAHAHAHA. yep its a toyota ;) jk man, as long as u like it then F what everyone else thinks.
i heard the tornados make those things fly... you know like an F5 act of mother nature...lol that kind of tornado...
just razzing you man enjoy the truck...
well at least you didnt buy a ford
at least get some pics :lol:
Must not have been huffin' fumes with the toy ota owners.Quote:

I'm not gonna insult anyone for buying one, but I'm definitely not seeing any reason for me to like them.
It's in the rules, sorry:

Buy a Toyota, Toyota of America repair and service technicians need the work. :laugh:

good luck
:sux2bu:
Well....gone are the days of a 800.00 cam swap.but o well.It could of been worse...you could have got a dodge....
Damn Dale--harsh words!!! I would 100% get a Dodge before a Toyota, Nissan, Ford, Honda, etc... But still, good luck with the purchase man. I am sure you will like driving that gas-guzzling, uglier than a mud fence of a truck that is not "Recommended" by Consumer Reports because it is projected to have less than average reliability ratings... But---to everone their own...
DAMN^^^ :) tyler, u still make me laugh man. crazy SOB!
like we have room to talk. we have piston slap, tranny issues, rear end issues, drive shaft issues, fuel pump issues, bow through #7 pistons like crazy and so forth...fact is that toyota made a great truck and the american brands are jumping on the defense. the camshaft issue is fixed, and toyota did a hell of a job warrantying the few trucks that had problems.Quote:

LOL guys--you know me--just razzing him a little. Yes, we all have our own faults...some just have more than others... :) (Cough, Cough...Ford, Toyota)... Uh, anyway, like I said--congrats on the purchase. I am sure you'll love it. Like doing a multiple cam swap would be fun... :LOL: Along with getting a good, reliable tuner RIGHT AWAY with thousands of available mods, and a HUGE backing from performance enthuasists...
But when there is a fork in the road we will all go our own separate ways...
Hey thanks man, at least some people stopped with the bashing, im just on here as a friend to some of the guys that helped me out with decisions on my silvy, I really like the truck and from what i understand there arent any more cam probs. I told ducky about the Laps for Charity event at texas motor speedway, then afterwards im going to the track, but only with some dodgetalk guys, the tundratalk guys are all being tools so theyre not goin, I would love to see some of you guys there.Quote:
