Toyota has plans to take on the big three with two new diesel power plants for the Tundra. To combat the new half-ton Dodge, Ford and GM/Chevrolet Diesels, Toyota has a twin turbo 4.5L V8. To go against the heavy duty diesels, Toyota has a 7.0L V8. Both engines should be available in 2010. The smaller 4.5L diesel will also be offered in the Sequoia. With Fuel Prices rising Truck sales are slowing. Toyota just had to lay off 200 temporary workers at a Tundra Plant in Texas. More fuel efficient trucks will sell better. The 4.5L will probably do very well. Here is what the 4.5L looks like.
