08 Canadian Tundra

[TSK]

From my preliminary ordering guide... Changes for 08 (fairly minor)

-Nautical blue colour with graphite interior available on SR5 DC and CM
-Redrock leather available with white Limited models (used to be exclusive to black)
-Double cab longbox 4.7 deleted
-Towing mirrors standard on all long box 5.7 models


Nothing really ground-breaking... unfortunately we still don't get 3Q3 colour (Salsa red pearl)

Pricing not released yet, but I wouldn't expect much if any change.

No Salsa Red

Taylor you're cruel!!!

No word about an updated interior(particularly inst cluster and replacing the plastic on the dash with a softer material like on the 4Runners...at least on the pavement princess Ltd's, better Nav system, better remote start???

[TSK]

Nope... only what's stated above. Expect a more thorough update for '09 MY.

[TundraCanuck]

Thats what I'm afraid of.....maybe I'll be buying out my 4Runner lease this fall and keeping it for a year.....

[TSK]

Probably a good plan. You probably have some equity in that lease if its matured.

[TundraCanuck]

But I want a Tundra now...and am even luck enough to have a wife who insists that if I get a truck it HAS to be a Tundra........

Granted, buyout on 4Runner is $20k, figure it's worth about $25-27 (03 Sport V8 w/ 50 km) so it's a good buyout, and we might keep it as a second vehicle anyways, even if we buy a Tundra this fall/next spring.

You could do what my buddy is doing, and that's buy a Tundra now and trade it in if and when the diesels come out.

I was opening this thread hoping to read "RCSB configuration will be available in Canada for 2008".

Keep dreaming Mike.

Tundra's in Canada are meant to have multiple doors and long boxes.

TSK,

Any idea when the new 08 will be available in Alberta? As soon as that happens I will be getting in touch.....save a nautical blue for me!

Nope, but I do have a nice white one with a 5.7L in stock.

Not sure about the color, but is it a 4x4 and what are you asking?

Yep... 5.7 4x4 with the sand beige interior... chrome bumpers and grille, steel wheels. Actually looks pretty smart in white... if it were mine I'd buy take-off 20" wheels and tires from a Limited and dress it up with some subtle graphics. They were asking 41995 but I'll let it go for $38350 + GST.
