    While making the drive from Tampa to Orlando, saw two 3rd GEN tundra‘s broken down on the side of the road. They were around 20 miles apart from each other. Tires weren’t flat, one was crawling along the shoulder.

    Toyota needs to figure it out.

    Why not offer the trustee v8 in the new gen?

    I’m glad this got its own thread. I feel like it isn’t talked about enough.

    I do not think the death if the ICE is as much of a foregone conclusion but I'd be surprised to see V8 half tons after 2030 or so.

    Hey,

    GM is investing almost a billion dollars in their sixth generation small block V8. Specifically for it’s full size truck and SUV business.

    Interesting.
