I have a bit of animosity towards a specific Toyota dealership, but that's a long story.

As far as the company, and vehicles...well, there's no room to complain. Everything I know about the Tundra is quite good, although my wife used to sell them so that may taint things. In terms of Toyota pickups it all comes down to one incident for me.

My dad has a mid 90's Toyota pickup. One day he ran over an elk. No, he didn't run into an elk, he literally ran over one. He was going down the highway and a vehicle in the next lane hit the elk, launching it into him. No brush guard/roo guard/reinforced bumper, no special skid plate, only a 2" lift. It left a big dent on the hood and sheared a control arm. He was able to find the parts in the middle of nowhere, fix it, and be on his way very shortly. I always think about that when I see a scrawny whitetail total a vehicle.
