Thank goodness that our F 150 is better looking than the new Tundra

I was joking... My point being it's as ugly as a Chinese knock off. And another attempt to copy the F150.

Retired and loving it!

At least Ford was able to sue for copyright infringement on that Chinese knockoff of the F150, and get them to stop producing it...no such luck with the Toyota interior, I fear.

Look under your hood. Many parts come from china and japan. The Tundra is no less american made than an F150. That's like saying Ram is european because it's owned by Fiat.
Another thing, toyota created jobs for Americans by having the tundra built here. Its not like they sent a crew of Japanese people to work here

Have you seen the Chinese attempts to enter the American market? They're the butt of many jokes at the Detroit auto show

But the Chinese are smart. All the major auto companies want a bigger share of the Chinese market resulting in technology transfer. It's just a matter of time before name brand cars will be built in China and shipped here.

On more meds than ymeski
Honda Fits that go to Canada are made in China but that will stop when their plant in Mexico is built next year. China is struggling to fill their domestic orders so it will be a while before they really make a push for North America.

I don't think it looks that bad.

This is very true! And... I may get flamed for this, but I am going to give the tundra a strong look next time. Unless Ford finds a way to fix their ePOS steering system. What a joke. My truck hasn't been terrible otherwise though, just some minor sync issues, burning oil, and rattling door panels. Otherwise truck looks great and has good power.
