1 month ago I bought new generation Silverado CrewCab with VortecMax engine (6.0L, 367hp) and I still unbeatable (Hemi, F-150s, GrandprixGTP, RX8, SLK500 so far)

Apparently you haven't ran into a new 5.7L Tundra then, lol! Take notice next time you get one to run ya, as you'll be seeing their tail lights! You better have some goods mods just to hang with one.

Is it really that hard for you to digest all the information published out there that shows the great gap in speed and hp that the new Toyota 5.7L puts up vs. the not so close competition? It's great to believe in your brand choice, but your lacking some common sense here! This should help some: Tundra 5.7>GM 6.2> Titan 5.6> GM6.0>Hemi 5.7> GM 5.3> Ford 5.4> the rest of the smaller cubes! Pretty simple I think.

You know this forum is about helping people with trucks fix problems and make their trucks better. We try to make them more dependable and perform better. Most of the people on here don't have a stock truck. It's not like your Tundra is the end all be all truck to rule the world. There is always gonna be a bigger better dog that does more trucks. Whether it be stock off the showroom floor or it has $5000 worth of aftermarket performance parts under the hood. There will always be something better that comes along. Your just making yourself sound foolish talking about how you have the best truck on the market and it's unbeatable.

Whenever i give you #'s, i always mention STOCK. Yes, someone can dump $$$$ into anything and make it fast. Most of you are trying to find out where you stand against a new XYZ brand and i'm telling ya. Anyway most people think a few bolt ons are going to give big results. I've been there and read from others also that a CIA, tune and exhaust (most popular mods) isn't going to give you seconds off your et! Thus a stock 17.5 GM with basic mods will NOT run with the class leading Tundra at 14.7! I'm not saying the Tundra is the fastest truck as the SRT10 is, but it's the fastest 4x4 made today. Now modding it is up to the owners. And, most high hp mods will not make your truck more dependable, just the contrary!
