It will no doubt have more of an impact than the weak previous Tundra but I don't expect a major dent simply because Toyota can't even make that many.

But competition is always good! The current F-150 has been out since late '03 I guess, so I'm sure a new one or big refresh is due soon. And since Ford is sticking the 6 speed auto in most everything else I expect it to be the standard trans on the next version.
what I found funny is that Tundra uses similar frame design that big trucks like F350 use... which is pretty funny.

I was checking on Tundra Solutions to see what real truckers thought about it, and that was one of the funny points - how apperantly so many fan boys and blog boys think that Tundra is weak, yet F350 uses similar design

:-).
