,Limited 4X4
| | Model | ,Limited 4X4 | | | What things have gone wrong with the car? | Front seats are not as comfortable as they should be and the cab could be a little bit longer for more rear seat room. | | | General comments? | I have had the Tundra for over 5 months and have put about 4,500 miles on it. It is the best riding truck I have ever been in and by far the most quiet. I have had it off road and it is very smooth. It gets very good milege (on the freeway). What Toyota could do to improve it would include increasing the payload, adding 4" to rear cab for better seating (families), a little longer wheel base for towing stability, and increasing the motor to compete with the big boys (350 cubic inch). I have many of my friends say they would love to get a Tundra but they have a family or tow a trailer thats above the towing limit of the Tundra. If you travel around the country as I do (in my motorhome) you will see that most of the trailers are in the neighorhood of 25 to 30 feet. These trailers weigh in at about 7 to 8 thousand pounds. Most people don't buy a truck to pull a trailer when the trailer is at or over the capacity of the truck. If toyota were to make a heavy duty verson of this truck, watch out! | | | Previous car | Drive all the others then drive the Tundra, that all it takes. The tundra feels more like a Lexus than a truck. But It does not have the pay-load and towing power of others when you order them with the heavy duty packages. |
