Who's with me?

between the flex and the bed bounce vids. Im a bit worried about them. Other than that the motor is bad ass.

my biggest worry was the tailgate, I have quad that I load and unload from there, and the last thing I would want is for the tailgate to separate, but the tundras look pretty sweet, they look mean lifted with rims, my uncles friends both have tacomas and love them, but I need and want a full sized(1/2 ton) p/u, and I like the GMC a lot...if/when I get another truck I will most likely get a GMC CC, I just hope they have a 6.5 bed then

Oh...the famous flexing videos. I agree that Toyota would have been better off going with a FBF but I figure there thought process was "I know how to beat the best 1/2 tons out there...lets take a 3/4 ton and wrap it in a 1/2 ton package". Wrong or right, but if you were to take the big 3's 3/4 tons down the same roads I'm guessing the flexing would be the same or worse.

Either way, it's a truck I know it's going to ride like a truck on rough roads. But I do know that when 1 threw 2K+ of floor slate into the back of the bed the ride was smooth as silk. LOL.

Then why the 1/2 ton payload and tow ratings?

They may be realistic...unlike some other manufacturer who grossly overrates their trucks...to make them seem above the competition.

Naw, just rattlin their cages. This battle has been going back and forth about which is better for a couple of days now. Kind of funny to read.

It was a tic comment. I'm not saying that it's a 3/4 ton...I was just saying that from the looks of the frame and the beefed up drivetrain it's as though Toyota took notes from the big 3's 3/4 ton and threw it into a 1/2 ton truck.
