Nancy, Something to think about before jumping on the Tundra bandwagon. The 5.7 V-8 motor in the Tundra has dual timing BELTS instead of timing chains. After you pass the max. 60,000 mile engine warranty your on your own. The entire front of the motor has to be removed to replace troublesome timing belts. Believe me, it's bound to happen well before you reach 75,000 -100,000 miles. It's designed to fail when the truck passes the factory 60,000 mile power-train warranty.
The four-wheel drive mechanism with all it's features is no where as good as a Chevy or GMC.
