2016 Toyota Tundra to come with Cummins diesel
Yep, you read that right. Linky

otrfun...FWIW, and as a Toyota car and Tundra person, excellent dissertation, and I agree.
X2! Couldn't agree more. This year was Toyotas chance to catch up and compete with the new 2014 Tundra, but they fell far short. A new (and ugly) grill, tailgate and interior on the old platform is not a new truck.
The old platform is excellent but is getting long in the tooth. Simply adding cylinder deactivation to improve mileage slightly and upping the payload would have done wonders and improved sales without costing much.
The use of a Cummins in the truck verifies the above post as well. It's a marketing ploy to attract more domestic buyers. Why else would they use it instead of one of Toyotas own proven diesels?
