An extra 5-6 grand for a true 2500 series Diesel Toyota would have GM, Ford, and Dodge sh!tting bricks. I'd get one. . .

Tell me something who's going to buy this beyond your construction workers/RV crowd ? The current Tundra exceeds a pretty good towing figure and with the current tread going on gas I see No Use period for this type truck
..Now Gm is providing a 2 stage hybrid system that my friend will gain notice in the future stake of full sized truck but hell I hate to see the towing figures on that
Now if Toyota can add the Lexus Ls 600 Hybrid v8 and put that under it's hood this would gain a lot of attention.
