You guys forgetting something. Remember that when the tundra first came out it had the strongest frame as I remembered toyota claimed. Back then the domestics are already rated to tow more, well into the 8k range, even with a weaker frame. It wasn't until the past few years that everyone upgrade to boxed frame, only then did they have a stronger frame and not by much. Well, I wouldn't call it stonger, just more rigid. Rigid doesn't always mean strength, why else would semi's not have rigid frames. You don't want to snap a frame cuz it won't flex to absorb the torque. Currently it's not the frame I'm worried about, it's the bearings, brakes, axles, gears, and it's light weight.
