Its kinda funny how yota has a 5spd in it and most truck mfg's are getting away from manual trannies. I bet the hino diesel would be a good one, but the truck will be best suited for getting smoked by psd's like you said!
I agree. That is one sweet interior. Outside, i just dont know about. Maybe its one of those things that would have to grow on me. All I know is that Im digging my :icon_ford:
Interesting how it resembles the ford in alot of ways....front end, hood, side mirrors...
I'd never own one cause its a yota but it does look sharp IMO.
Wow you guys posted fast! lol I think the outside is as ugly as bockhold, but i like the interior. I would figure they shoulda done a 6spd if they are doing a manual.
Interior set aside, I also think it looks really sharp. The only other item I hate though is the taillights. Looks fugly. But I like the wheels, the cab styling and general look. I doubt you'd ever see Yota or Nissan with a Diesel pickup though. I guess time will tell.
Who cares if it's an 8.0l?...the article said it is probably going to put out 300hp/600tq. No potential. Powerstrokes, Cummins and Duracraps put out more than that with less displacement.
i think that as long as companies offer a diesel pick-up they should also offer a manual transmission. It seems like it would make sense to atleast offer a manual. There are people that simply prefer it. :dunno: GM got rid of manuals on diesels. I personally LOVE my torqshift but manuals are great as well. Who knows, we shall see in the years to come.
This truck ain't happening, at least not for a year or two. I love my Toyotas, but I also love my :ford:. I'd have to drive one before making any assumptions :wall:
Toyota's are junk, and that truck is hideous. I'll never buy another truck that isn't a Ford. On top of that, american made money should be spent on American car companies and put into the American economy not those idiot Jap's.

I try to buy the best that I can afford. I've been driving chevy for a long time. This go round I went ford and I'm glad. we have a honda that is about to be sold. I would prefer a new camero. The old lady though is diehard mustang. So I guess we are about to be 100% ford
