Car & Driver Previews '08 Toyota Tundra

[big blue]

Not bad at all. The dark colors work with it, and the grille with the 3 bars inside negate some of the snout-look its all black grille bretheren have. The Chevy/GMC trucks have a better interior design imo so for now, I'd still go with the GMT900s.

The Tundra is no uglier than the current kings of ugly trucks--the Ram and Dakota, IMHO..

The dark blue one looks ok, but dark blue or black should look good on most trucks. The other colors don't look very good at all.

Having seen a new Silverado in person recently, as well as being familiar with all the other trucks on the market, I really like the look of the new Tundra--at least from these pics.

It looks fresh and modern, and not at all overdone, or so bland it's almost a bad thing (the GM's...shoot me for saying so). They finally look large and tough, too, with a "road style" flare to make it all smooth and sophisticated too.

No, the work truck version people keep commenting on doesn't look great, but neither does a WT Silverado or F150--they look a lot worse, a lot of the time.

Still, Toyota isn't going to kill or really hurt any other truckmaker, since truck buyers are often the most stubborn crowd set to one brand for like no matter what, but at least there will be a great new and fresh choice out there for those actually looking for something different and new, with power and size to spare.

Actually, it doesn't look bad in that trim

Actually, if you drape a dark blue or black over a pile of crap, you can boost its appearance ten fold.

That's why fat-chicks wear black, because black makes you look thinner

Notice he said IMHO. You don't have to agree with him, but you have to respect his opinion. Some people don't like the brash, in-your-face look of the Ram, and he's probably one of those people. The headlights of the Ram are certainly ugly if nothing else.

i saw my first 07 silverado at the dealer today. Very clean, restrained, but strong looking truck. Very 'honest'. The Tundra looks sexually confused. And a bit bloated.

Seems to suffer from the weird cab-forward design of the Titan. Different? Surely. Tasteful? Contestable. Attractive? Hardly.

I thought that was a Titan posted above at first glance.

The Tundra Sport (I assume that's what it's called) looks better than the garden-variety ones, but it still looks ugly to me.

I kind of feel sorry for it. It's not so much ugly as it is stupid looking.

Big and red...

That's the loud and proud way to say your package got crushed up and shrunk during delivery...
