A lot of people don't like the look of the FTX but I must say that if they put a truck like that out on the market I'd get it in a heartbeat. It has everything the current Tundra doesn't have (size, ruggedness, monster power).

Also, if the next generation Tacoma is any indication as to what direction Toyota is going in it should be a good sign for the Tundra. The next-gen Tacoma which comes out later this year has been seriously beefed up in size to make it a true mid-size pickup instead of the compact pickup it is now. Not to mention the front end now has a lot of similarity to the 4Runner which I think is a good thing. It looks to be a very good truck. Hopefully the next-gen Tundra will follow in its footsteps.

Anyone here excited about the upcoming Tundra? What do you expect Toyota to bring to the table? I know they're building an all new plant in San Antonio just for the Tundra. I think they have to really raise the bar to stay competetive in this segment now. The F-150 is going to take a huge chunk of this market-segment and the Titan is also going to take up a huge part of the "import" truck segment. Toyota has to bring it with this next generation Tundra or they can kiss the pickup game goodbye. I expect the next Tundra to really raise the bar. What do you all think?

No I'm not!
