I am pretty sure it does. It was the GMs "demo" at Dick Dyer in Columbia. Not much this thing doesnt have. Nav, back up camera, sunroof, linex, running boards, heated and ac front seats, leather......

9300lbs listed with the 4.10 gears. This one has 4.30 gears so it should pull a little more. The only thing I do not like are the fender flares. Bit not so much I am going to take them off (for now).

I keep harassing the wife saying I am going to put a supercharger on it. But, I think this one is going to stay stock. In the future, I may look into a go fast car. But, with a family, not sure when...

"The second generation Tundra is assembled at two different United States locations, the original Princeton, Indiana plant supplemented by a newly built San Antonio, Texas plant. Combined, the two plants give Toyota a maximum capacity of produce 300,000 Tundra units annually or 100,000 units from the Indiana plant and another 200,000 units from the Texas plant. When designing the Texas plant, Toyota arranged for 21 key Tundra suppliers to set up factories on the same site to avoid logistical issues, however those suppliers are more vulnerable to a market downturn. Toyota also included a $9 million dollar health care facility to serve workers and their dependents.[5]

In the spring[when?] of 2008 Toyota moved all Tundra production to the Texas plant.[citation needed] All Tundra engines and transmissions are built in the United States.[citation needed] As sales fell in 2008, production of Tundra at San Antonio stopped for three months.[6]"

I've had several Toyota/Lexus V-8s in the last few years. They aren't known for their exemplary gas mileage but they have all been rock solid cars/trucks. (although bland)
