Ramoine and Dez, you guys will get a kick out of this. I handled a traffic crash yesterday between a T-100 (96 model) and a new Pontiac Vibe. The Vibe slammed the rear of the T-100 and bent the bumper under slightly; no body damage. The Vibe was towed and is probably totaled or at least close; more than 1 fluid coming from it. Driver went to the hospital on a stretcher. The T-100 had 136k on it and the lady said she has only replaced the tires and brakes. If I could find a low mileage T-100 I would buy it. Goes to show that Toyota is not new at building tough trucks. Just finally making a "full size" tough truck.

Ramonie, how could you do that to those meaty BF goodriches? I did that kind of thing when I was 16. Those tires are way to expensive these days to smoke them like that. Nice burn out though.

I think my Tundra is way to soft, i wrecked my CM doin 60-65 down a dirt road and my tow hooks dug into a ditch that i could not see until I was 30 feet away from it. But anyways i bent down the front 6 inches of the frame and it pulled down the fenders and of coarse tore up the bumper. From the first contact of the tow hooks to the second contact of the tow hooks on the dirt was 70 feet. That was the hardest hit i've ever taken and i ride motocross!

You are either completly devoted to your fellow TTers or you're just "geeked up" about getting some new tires.

No unfortunatly not, Now i get to live with a damaged $34,000 truck, its in the body shop right now and erbody round here says hes really good so i hope its not noticeable later!

The dodge 5.7 hemi is no comparison to our 5.7 cammer and gearing has little to do with it have you seen what the dodge hemis put down usually 240-260hp with most tundras well over 300hp thats more than 25hp to the wheels! Just think about the difference at the crank. The only engine that comes close is the 5.6 in the titan which is rated lower than the hemi and still puts down more power. Let dodge come out with the new 380hp hemi (rated to match our trucks) and the i-force 5.7 will still smoke it lol. Dodge hemi fans just don't get it build your vehicles with more than one cam push rods suck!
