[Big Tool]

Wow, I can't believe that consumer reports rated the tundra poorly, but it sure is ironic how just a few months ago people on this board were so busy bashing GM,Ford And dodge and their only undisputable evidence of toyotas superiority over the domestics was CR. Now the same people are saying CR is a joke and nobody should ever even acknowledge CR's existence b/c they said something bad about the TUndra.

Not to mention the poor guy who leaked the info about the impending poor reliability rating. The guy was nice as could be, and stated time and again how much he liked the tundra and was planning on getting one, but the fact he said something against the Tundra almost had him banned.


I said the same thing when i was defending GM, and now i will make the same comment in regards to the Tundra we own. CR is junk. They are soo clueless. The one scenario that stands out the most to me was when they reviewed two GM cars "cant rember which one in particular" The cars were identical in every aspect, they were just rebadges which anybody who is familiar with GM should know is the same exact car with a differenct front facia. One was rated horrible the other was good. CR even cited things in particular such as the drivetrain, which was the same in both vehicles.... After reading that article i never put any faith into what CR has to say.

Bottom line the tundra is a good truck, not a great or perfect truck, and imo deserves a much better rating than what is given by CR.

On another note yay, now resale is going to be lower and people like myself who shop used can get an even better deal....
