I'd love to see one tow. I had an inline six turbo in my supra. Motor was rediculously over built from the factory and could handle tons of power. An 8 litre turbo diesel from Toyota? Yeah, that'd be nasty.

 

American truck-Japanese truck, Who gives a ?! We buy what we buy to pull our toys, etc. My Dodge was made in Mexico-likely has some Japanese parts in it. If the big 3 didn't compromise quality for quantity, this discussion wouldn't even take place. Neither Toyota, Nissan or Honda requested a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR BAIL-OUT. When Toyota first considered the full-size pickup, they were going to put a Cat in it. Did you know that the mighty Caterpiller is assembled in Japan? (yeah...Japan) Who supplies G.M. with their current diesel platform? Isuzu heavy industries...of Japan. If Toyota offers something that will carry, and pull the kind of loads that my Dodge has to contend with, I'll go get one. If it holds up as well as my wife's Sequoia, It is money well spent.

 

Anyone got any videos of this truck running? Can't seem to find none on Youtube.

 

never seen it driving around but I tell you that its a sweet concept, sure we dont need it to be dually or have ugly orange looking interior but a 1ton toy with diesel? heck yeah.

 

That bad boy is a looker no doubt. Just seems kinda funny looking a 6 ft bed on a C/C. Like a bodybuilder that trains all upper body and dont train legs :-) Out of proportion, I guess in my eyes a full C/C should have an 8 ft, bed. But that bad boy is a looker no doubt . alottawork went into that thing Ill give them that. I seen it on pickup truck dot com at the SEMA ahow. Ita oh 2 cool looking. I can only imagine what the sticker on that truck will be if it ever makes it to production.
