Vehicle Tested:
2008 Toyota Tundra Tundra Grade 2dr Regular Cab SB (5.7L 8cyl 6A)
MSRP of Test Vehicle: $39,931 Price It!!


What Works:
Five hundred hp and 550 lb-ft prove adequate; civilized powertrain; terrific brake pedal feel.

What Needs Work:
Should've left the steering in the ship it was lifted from; hobbyhorse ride.

Bottom Line:
The last of a dying breed, but among the fastest.

Are they implying a Rousch F150, or a Ram SRT10 has lightning quick steering? I wouldnt know but I highly doubt it. And as far as trucks and SUVs go, I was very impressed with the tundra's handling and feedback after driving a 5.7, didnt leave me feeling like the captain of a ship at all.

And $39k for a base SR5 short bed single cab+ mods. How the hell do they get it that high. I saw a completely loaded cremax LTD 4wd with blower, wheel upgrade and all for around $50k on ebay a couple of weeks ago.
