    The Tundra DC Tundra is pretty roomy compared to competition. Most people could live with just a DC unless hauling 6’6” men in the back.

    NO LONGER HAVE A TUNDRA... Waiting
    Yes, I wouldn't buy a 2500 or 3500 cause i don't need to tow a house, space shuttle or a yacht. I'm a DIY kind of home improvement type of person and only makes small runs to the local hardware store. LOL Maybe pull a UHAUL trailer every now and then, that's it.

    I only need a truck for light duty work, yes 1500 can suck but at the same time, it still beats the Toyota in MPG consumed so.. it's a win there at least.

    Now my Tundra is just a family hauler and grocery getter.

    No offense but the 1500 sucks compared to my 07. MPG?? Big deal. It's a fracking truck and my 07 always runs on 8 cylinders like a truck should.

    Exactly my point. It wouldn’t make sense for you to buy anything bigger.

    so if these electric vehicles are so green, then explain how they get their power? from a power plant that is required to produce energy that create so called green house gasses.

    then what about when all the batteries are shot? what happens to those? not sure lead and anything in those batteries is good for the environment as well. more taxes I can assure you in order for it to be handled correctly according to our dear leaders in Washington.

    folks we aren't getting rid of fossil fuel anytime soon. it just won't happen. we have tons of oil left despite being told since grammar school we were going to run out in just a few years. I am 50+ years old and we have more oil now in our own country than we've ever had.

    electric has a cool factor but not one I'd be hedging my bets on.

    I'm actually surprised this thread hasn't gone full political yet. I'd love to chime in with what's happening with regard to GM here in Canada but that would get me a time out pretty quick. :(

    Post facts, no political party bashing or banter, and keeping people’s mothers out of conversations. That never ends well, regardless of “friendship” on this site.
    That is what was deleted tonight.
