Toyota informs us they mapped down all the afflicted components to a certain set and also have given that made the improvements to the layout. No failures have actually appeared given that. Extra recently, there have actually been some records of transmission shudder under specific low-speed conditions, which suppliers have mapped to a torque converter problem. Toyota says these cases were isolated as well as have actually likewise been resolved. And also finally, there's been babble on the web concerning tailgate troubles, which Toyota is in the process of finding. Our assumption is much of these stories spread like wildfire, offered the lightning-rod impact this brand-new truck is having with fanatics and the speed with which a Net thing can take a trip.

The Tundra showed itself a star player in ordinary outfit (Double Taxi Tundra Quality, 4.7 L V-8; $27K), along with in totally spruced up (CrewMax Limited, 5.7 L V-8; $47K). When dressed down, the front bench seats enables a column shifter and work-truck dash with a dual glovebox as well as hidden center storage area under the center seat. Our fully packed model had flexible leather captain's chairs as well as a substantial center console storage bin, big sufficient to hold a few laptop computers as well as act as a declaring cabinet. The CrewMax model, with its extended passenger cabin, provides a sliding rear seat with drop-forward and also slide-forward capability.
Among the more vital indoor conveniences, cabin quiet (while driving on rough roads or at highway rates) is most likely the Tundra's the majority of remarkable quality. If there's a quieter vehicle around, we haven't driven it. Only 2 beefs with the interior: the facility pile's excessive size as well as aesthetic split (looks like it's cut in two) and also the location of the navigation system practically from arm's reach for the vehicle driver.
Is it the perfect truck? That relies on just what you need, but by offering 44 various flavor options, Toyota expects to have just what you're trying to find, stuffing durable vehicle abilities right into a half-ton truck that's quiet as well as strong. After some discussion, most of our judges agree: The most deserving rival for Motor Fad's 2008 Vehicle of the Year title is the all-new Toyota Tundra.
