    And the brand new, fully designed GM T1 doesn't even score that well on the front overlap test from what I read.

    I understand why you may think they dropped the ball..... Dodge RAM big display screen, beautiful interior, lots of chrome and storage compartments on the side, etc...Ford somewhat better mpg, ac plugs "THE NAME FORD", and then there's the Chevy...….????? But the Tundra, I don't have to justify it. I just went on the Tundra forum and read articles other than Road & Track..... the Tundra truck speaks for itself! But, I was always told that when there are a lot of gimmicks like 12 inch display screens and other fancy items on a pickup); that truck is making up for something that it is lacking.

    Is there a stock seat out there that is comfortable after driving 1,000 miles straight?

    Could you use a seat out of a trophy truck? I thought those races were typically pretty long.

    I made a round trip from Virginia Beach Va to Rapid City SD in my 18 1794 Ed. last summer. 3600 mi total. Drove 900 ea day. Absolutely the most comfortable seat I have sat in for that long.

    Threads like this are stupid. Their ONLY value is as entertainment.

    This thread has nothing to do with Down Syndrome.

    This is why I haven't been on Tundras.com lately ...

    P.S. Now, if someone follows this with "No, you're stupid," that would be funny.:monocle::D

    Don't let the forum get you down man ...:thumbsup:

    I think this thread should live forever with a mixture of people posting random funny shit, going off on tangents and then having the OP come and reply followed by a malestrom of mullet, cigarette and 80s jokes.

    OK. Thanks for the advice, Doc. No, it has nothing to do with Down syndrome. But, it does inject some personal attacks. So, you should be able to see the point I’ve made and if you can’t then we obviously don’t see it the same way.

    Double Cabs still do well in the safety tests compared to the CM.

    I apologize, Sir.

    You were right, we should be more careful about the words we use.

    I'm sorry I didn't see this earlier, but now, I understand.

    Again, mea culpa. I spoke stupidly, and you did make a valid comment.

    I'll try to be more thoughtful about how I post on the forum from now on.

    Have a good day!:thumbsup:

    Toyota really dropped the ball on blinker fluid in the tundra. I can't believe they make you change it every 2500 miles.
