I know when I looked on Edmunds.com, the ratings were as follows
Chevy Silverado 1500; 8.8
Dodge Ram 1500; 8.9
Ford F-150; 9.3
Nissan Titan; 9.3
Toyota Tundra; 9.3
I guess what I'm asking is, "Are their at least a few Tundras out there which don't have any paint problems, don't leak anything, shift just fine, etc" ?

Logic tells me that if you have a forum section "just for problems, then most of the posters will be discussing... well... problems" ! Just kind of unnerving to see "so many problems, at one time, in one small place".
.......especially when your a (typically) poor guy, fixing to dump $25K in one big lump !

Well I guess I'm the other person. Only 1 issue so far and I considered it as a matter of convienence. Pass mirror wouldn't auto close but every 5th time it would. I was at 15,000 miles for this. Part was ordered and 3 days later put in shop with oil change, out in 1 hour 15 minutes. It took only 45 minutes to replace mirror and another 30 for oil change and paper work. I'm at 24,000 miles and I bought my truck July 14, 2007. Received wife's 07 Prius on July 17, 2007 and she has 12,000 miles and no issues yet. It has been since 98 that we had a problem free vehicle. I had Ford's and Chevy's. Bad customer service and the constantly going to fix the Ford's and the one Chevy truck was ridiculous. When you reach 20x to fix a vehicle within 1 - 4 years is too much in my book. I dumped my 06 Silverado LT3 Ext Cab and took a great beating on it. I loss $7,000 up front on it just to get rid of it. Customer service was so bad with changing headliner 8x filing Lemon Law and losing in Arbitration along with factory rep accusing me of pulling headliner down. Telling me I'm the only one with this problem and the dealership was only replacing them to please me. I had to order the headliner every time it was to be replaced. If this is so that they replace the headliners why is it the first time I went in for the change of headliner I received 2 days earlier a notice from the parts dept that I had 2 weeks to make appt and change this or it will be sent back. This was the only one I received. What happened to the other 7? Well we know they just pushed up the headliner back into place. Simply done and 2 days later it was down again. When they did replace it which was 3 times I can tell is from the grease fingerprints on the headliner all over it. They tried to give it to me like that. Now everyone can see why I'm happy about staying on the road with my truck now. This was just the chevy one. Not to mention the 3 fords. For me both chevy and ford would be lower. How about being called about being satisfied about you service you done which was a week later and your headliner came down in 2 days. Or the other question "HOW MANY CHEVY'S DO YOU OWN"? Does it matter you can't fix the one I have there. So this can happen to all automakers not just Toyota. It's how customer service handles it for you. Or should I say Enterprise who sees me come in and says Not the truck again? Well enough said.
