Truck opinion

[B-Stealth]

Ok, I forgot to add that I have a few aftermarket parts. I run a K&N air filter, split fire spark plugs, optima battery, and Royal Purple engine oil. These components combined together add atleast 70hp.

The other day I outran my cousins buddies Mustang in a drag race, and that thing is fast.

Lol I forgot to add the Flow-Master pipes as well they add like 45hp. Before anyone was serious and gonna lie about what there truck can pull and there mpg I figured I would get that out of the way. I mean what's a truck comparison thread without some absurd mpg claim.

I do own a 2010 4X4 Tundra 5.7 and I love it but it have never done any of the things I mentioned above. It will maybe get 22mpg going downhill with a tailwind.

As far as comparing the Tundra to a F-250 King Ranch I say get the Ford Raptor; obviously $$ is not a real big factor and you don't need the F-250.

Any pros/con of the non-Diesel F250?

My 2007 Tundra never got better then 14, maybe 15 on a good day.

My Tundra was an awesome truck, was the first 1/2 ton that could pull over 12k, now its the norm with all 1/2 tons. When I got ride of it with 130K miles I didn't have a single problem with it. But I needed a true 4 door cab and long bed, as well I needed more pulling capacity. You can not get a full size 4 door with a long bed in the Tundra. A lot of my heavy towing are in the Ozarks in N Arkansas. I needed a diesel to tackle those mountains with a load. If you don't NEED a diesel, don't get one. for all my day to day commuting I drive a 1990 Honda civic
