This is my first post, I am currently driving a 04 Dodge Ram that I will be returning from it's lease in June. I have ordered a 07 DC Limited in Black with Red Rock interior. I can't wait to pick it up. The Red Rock interior is only available with Black in Canada.
Can someone please explain why the Tundra is not a real body on frame set up. I know it has a strong frame, but it is also unibidy. I am a little confused about this.

Thanks

Wow, no idea. Im pretty sure that its a body on frame design from all the pictures etc Ive seen.

I read in one of the comparisons that they are using some kind of unibody set up, it may have been on Edmunds.

The new Tundra is a traditional frame. Not a unibody

I think I'm going to take the 07 Tundra forum out of my "new posts" list!

It is a body on frame btw, not unibody at all

Not possible to explain this, since it is a traditional body on frame truck, not a unibody.

Where are you reading, or being told, that it is a unibody?

I am trying to find the article, but it stated that it is not traditional body on frame construction.

It is traditional body on frame, the frame is partially boxed(front/engine area), partially reinforced c-channel (cab area), partially unreinforced c-channel (bed area).
