What about every other part of the truck?? Its already pretty obvious the tailgate will be the first part to fail.

The Gauge cluster looks like it's from a Matel playschool set for 2-4 year olds! Way to go Yota!

yea I don't think they should rush this truck!! They should make sure this release is going to be built STRONG!! I guess they know what a good transmission is though lol, one small step in the right direction.

I agree. Don't know much about the interior or powertrain.

I agree, although yota hasn't gotten into this market as of yet they've shown that they are serious about the truck market so they shouldn't Rush whatever they are gonna introduce in the diesel market. At least take the time to make something worthwhile instead of throwing some parts together.

Due to monetary constraints at this time the best I may be able to do to retain my status on here would be this...

yeah no kidding. I've seen manual trannys in trucks with shorter shifters than that.

That's the worst concept vehicle I have ever seen. 8 liters and only 300hp/600ft lbs? Who are they competing with? power wheels? The interior wouldn't be bad if it came in a color other then rap video peanut butter and if the gauge cluster wouldn't have a light for every possible thing in, on, or around the truck. It only marks 85mph.
