Every time I slide behind the Tundra's wheel, I couldn't help thinking of this as the Lexus of pickups. How that will play with serious truck folks, I don't know, but personal-use drivers should love it. Warranty Three years or 36,000 miles. The Tundra was as tight as a government bureaucrat and as quiet as mouse in church. Punch the throttle and the V8 simply lights up with joy.
Build quality appears to be first rate.
