Default Toyota Tundra Crewmax Dually

Here's the rest of the story, I've only owned two types of trucks Fords & Toyotas, I'm wondering how many will make a switch over to this. Check out the stats....

Toyota Tundra "Road Warrior" exterior combined with luxury Interior and a giant diesel powertrain that has the Toyota faithful seeing visions of lipops and towing domination
Making a bold and adventurous statement about the contrasts between rugged "Road Warrior" performance and opulent luxury, a Toyota Tundra CrewMax diesel dually project truck made its debut at the 2007 SEMA Show. Toyota engineers have said that though the industry will look upon the Road Warrior as a "prototype" or "concept" Tundra, it is not. This truck was meant to be simply a project vehicle which displays some extremely unique features that consumers don't see on their modern Tundra pickups. That said, it is quite possible the construction of this truck was meant to gauge the interest of the truck market to possibly solidify the future development of a heavy-duty diesel-powered Tundra.

At its core, the Tundra light duty pickup's stock engine was replaced with a medium duty diesel powerplant plucked from a 35,000-pound commercial truck. The 8.0-liter inline six-cylinder high-torque engine, made by Toyota affiliate Hino, is mated with an Eaton five-speed manual transmission and a Hino back end. Toyota Motorsports Technical Group heavily modified the Tundra to accommodate the beefed-up driveline.

A host of custom exterior treatments point to the off-the-charts muscle under the hood. Prominent examples include forged aluminum alloy 22.5-inch wheels custom made by Alcoa, a diamond plate-lined bed, a charcoal gray metallic flat paint finish and a fifth-wheel hitch rated at 24,000 pounds.

The muscular theme on the outside shifts dramatically to that of luxury on the inside with hand-sewn ginger leather seats, suede pillars and headliner and dual rear captain's chairs with individual DVD entertainment systems.
