    It was much worse than that, it can legit grenade the engine and to replace the turbos is a cab-off job. Our local Toyota dealer is full of Tundras no one wants for this reason and Ford and GMC made serious head way this year for pickups over Toyota.

      I don’t know if that’s really the reason. Tundra sales have always been kind of low.

          It must be an area thing, here the Tundra launch was super botched and people were pissed and had piles of money waiting to buy stuff. High trim trucks here are super common and alot of people own them to tow boats, horse trailers, side by sides, and watercraft. It is mostly all GMCs and Fords, and the occasional Ram. All the Toyotas for most part are overlanding stuff like 4Runners and modified Tacomas.

          If you are at the factory, I hope they design them with smaller A pillars (seriously it can hide stoplights and stop signs, and give an option to turn off the fake engine sound (dealer here charges $500 with a OBD tool for it good grief) along with more engine choices (v8 and a diesel please). I loved the interior on the TRD Pro and I wish the Capstone had more than white leather because in a truck that will get destroyed. Its not a bad truck, its just I wish Toyota did more.
