2007 Toyota Tundra First Drive

| Advice: Deal Breakers |

Ah, reputations. Perhaps they are only as good as your last big moment. If so, Toyota's reputation for quality materials is about to take a significant hit, thanks to knobs and materials that felt light, flimsy and somewhat less than truck-tough durable. The temperature control knob, while bigger than normal and clearly marked, feels as if it could break off with a twist. Same goes for the beefy gear selector: The handle is well designed, but the stalk is thin, and feels like it could easily snap. Other drawbacks to the Tundra are subjective: miles-per-gallon is in the low teens with a six-speed automatic transmission, the sheetmetal style is too brawny and the ride is too truck-like.
