As far as the Tundra it looks nice. Hopefully the fuel system is improved with the blower. It wasn't a complete package for the 3.4. I get better milage blown than when I was stock with my Tacoma. Even with the fuel mods. Those wheels look a bit disco though. Other than that, its nice to see TRD stepping up again.

very true. i forgot that pretty much all new diesels use the dpf which makes it hard to run anything but uls#2. of course a clean vo system can be used. we just installed one on a 08 dirtymax. ayway, enough of the off topic diesel stuff, i can talk diesels all day!

I would like to see a big name diesel in a Tundra HD. But not if its a CAT C7. I doubt an ISB would be considered because of the Chrysler association, and it deffinitely wont be a Mercedes/ Detroit, because well it just won't. A Hino engine is the most feasible, but with Ford having a PowerStroke (International), Dodge having the ISB, & Chevy with the Dura( and the C7 in the med duty), it doesnt really Toyota much choice. That should be interesting...
