iceslayer Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 2005 Tacoma TRD Sport, Double Cab. Great on gas when I stay below 2000rpm. Normaly just towing a 4-wheeler but it's done a few heavier things and you cant even notice. Love the truck. Ton's of room and full of power. 4.0L V6 I mean FULL of POWER!

Lowe Rider Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Okay i have a question for you all. Does the chev silverado 4wd get the same gas milleage as the 2wd when its not in 4wd The two wheel drive gets better mileage but I love having the option of throwing her in 4x4. A friend has one with the locking diff and a good set of tires and does pretty good with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowe Rider Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 ....It tows, it stows and it has a bed, what more could I want. OT:This is a stupid console drivers question.

Bernie Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) Had this one for a little over 5 years. 1996 F150, last of the old style. Been one of the best I ever had although I miss my full size Broncos from the past. But the pickup is much handier for hauling stuff. Saves hauling a trailer most of the time. She's got a 5.8 under the hood which is enough power for whatever I do with it. Just shy of 270,000 km and works great. PS. Careful what you say about the Tundra NES.

Billy Bob Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Changing Everything HAHAHAHAHA,what are they trying to make fuel mileage the worst in any fullsize, You must be watching those STUPID Chevy commercials that Chevy gets more per mile. Oh, wait you couldn't watch them yesterday if you were tuned in for the Super Bowl because Bankrupt Motors couldn't afford to advertise during the Super Bowl, neither could Dodge. Toyota had many adds during the game including some with TUNDRA. Go to Consumer Reports and see who got the BEST REAL mileage from all the trucks they tested. It was the TUNDRA. BTW I get 19.3 with my BIG V-8 engine and it's a 4x4 double cab. And it will also out pull and out last ANY of the once big three manufacture trucks. This I have more money and time for How long before they go crying to the government for more money ? ? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Bob Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 BillM, I don't think any of the small three truck companies will beat the Tundra in a 1/4 mile race. With 381 hp 6 speed tranny and 4:30 rear end it's not even close. Also isn't that a 2500 3/4 ton truck with what a diesel engine. If so you are now comparing apples to bananas. I'll stick with my Toyota TUNDRA............ some might be forced to change when one of the small three run out of money again. Not a smart investment purchasing a product from a manufacture that might go belly up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carp Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 2007 Ford Escape 3.0 litre, V6 Pulls the 14 and 16 foot aluminum boats I use with no problem. Also tows my 5 1/2 x 10 foot (3500 lb. axle) utility trailer with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 It's all in good fun Yeah, it's a 2500HD with a Duramax and the Allison 6spd. 1/4 mile wouldn't even be close, these trucks aren't made for drag racing, lol It falls on it's face when the digits get up there, but out of the hole with 650ftlbs of torque it's a monster. I think anyone shopping a Tundra would be silly not to look at a truck like this also. Doesn't seem to much of a difference, even in the price range.

Uncle Buck Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) Okay i have a question for you all. Does the chev silverado 4wd get the same gas milleage as the 2wd when its not in 4wd I've never noticed a difference in RPMs when i switch to 4WD.... I don't have a silverado though... Here's mine... 00 Envoy 4.3 V6... not enough power but it looks nice... LOL It'll pull but could use more balls It had enough balls to do this to the rear diff while pulling a bush out in 4 low... managed to explode my carrier and snap a 10,000lb towstrap in the process Edited February 2, 2009 by Uncle Buck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
