This isn't just a blind review after reading a wiki article. All the cars that I will post my opinions on, I have been in, and have been in for a good amount of time. At the end I will give my own 1-10 rating of the car.
Toyota Tundra V8 (Some special version with BBS rims)
I won't immediately call it rubbish, especially because of my known hatred of Toyota, but I will say that I don't quiet like it. First of all, for a truck of it's length, it shouldn't be as wide as an S10. It's about as useless as that ugly explorer with the chopped in half bed. The height of it is another that bothers me. I shouldn't have to use the damn step up bar to jump in this thing, granted i am only 5'8". Being the slim thing that it is, raising the height a bit is not at all helping the performance, nor is it helping the person that has to get anything heavy into the bed.
The nail in the coffin for me on this is the engine. While driving calmly, it is no louder than a Toyota prius, but that is not my issue. Lets just say I wasn't expecting to hear much of anything when the throttle was jammed, but the sound i heard was one of a muffled V8 stuffed under a blanket and crying for help. My dad's V6 Mustang makes more of a racket at half throttle than i think this thing could ever make. It couldn't even keep a slight wheel spin going coming off dirt onto the pavement, whereas the little V6 Mustang easily can.
A couple more things before I give my full rating. The interior is pretty much just, meh, pretty boring and a bit ugly. The seats are a bit hard, and are not exactly the most comfortable. Space is a bit of a so so to me, considering I had just come out of a Chevrolet Tahoe, so i'd say it was around a medium size wise. That's about all i can think of right now, but i will come back if i think of anything else
My overall rating: 5
There will definitely be more opinions as i have more time, but as some of you may have noticed, I haven't had any time at all to get on GTP. Any comments about my ratings are welcome, even if you don't at all agree with me, which I am sure will happen... a lot
