Somebody didnt do there homework! Now listen I dont wanna start a ____ing match.
(Off topic, but I wanted to address some anti-Tundra comments earlier that misrepresent the truck)
Was reading through one of the threads on here and saw the video of the Tundra frame vs the F150 frame that you posted blasting the Tundra. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but I figured I'd follow up with you and explain what I think Ford's biased training was omitting.

FWIW, C-channel frames are very common in the industry. Ford does a lot of scare tactic training, but they never mention that in their very own Super Duty lineup they use the same C-channel frame design. Gravel trucks, haulers, motorhomes, etc all also use this frame design as well. So it's plenty capable.

http://www.topspeed.com/cars/ford/20...ure144558.html

As for frame deflection, Toyota has said that they designed the frame flex into the design of the vehicle because it helps to isolate vehicle occupants from the loads in the bed. It makes for a much better riding truck. You can get away with doing this because the bed and cab are actually separate. For vehicles like the Toyota Sequoia where frame twist is unwanted because it would transfer unwanted twisting force through the body (wouldn't be good!) and frame, a boxed frame is used front to back.

Believe me, it wasn't an omission or a design failure.
