Toyota Tundra Sales Tanking - H.D. Tundra In Trouble?

So the goon will be gone soon.

And I thought a Lexus version was coming :-?

4.4 liter diesel coming in 2010. This heavy duty enough. a 7.4 diesel is overkill.

I actually agree with you. Part of the legitimacy of the Tundra being heavy duty is a heavy duty version.

news of tundra's demise is premature.

"It’s important to remember that Toyota is not alone - every truck manufacturer is facing double-digit year over year sales declines in their truck lines. As of right now, Toyota Tundra year over year sales have declined less than any other half-ton truck (excepting the Honda Ridgeline, but that’s not really a truck). In other words, don’t let any Ford, Chevy, or Dodge owners tell you Toyota’s in trouble. If anything, the Dodge Ram is the most likely candidate to disappear. Rumors that Chrysler has exhausted their operating cash have some analysts convinced they’re likely to file bankruptcy."

What ever truck company makes there vehicle much better on gas and still able to tow will come out the winner. I believe an electric truck from PML is the answer! More power and at least 3x better on gas?

Stop writing lame @$$ articles about just the Tundra. We get it, you don't like it. But don't sit on a high horse thinking everyone else is ok. GMC, Checy, Nissan, Ford, Dodge are ALL losing out and cutting production and the like. So it is NOT just Toyota. This is the 4th or so article I've seen about the Tundra sales falling and production cutbacks. I have seen maybe one about Ford. C'mon, be a little bit fair at least.

Ford is coming out with a smaller F150 to be possibly called the F100. Not sure if it will be a Ranger replacement, but according to them it is going to be just a tad smaller than an F150, get better mileage, towa good amount and have newer engines like the EcoBoost coming out. So it should be a slot between the 150 and Ranger.

Oh, and please get fair with your lame truck articles.
