My bad. Thought about it a couple hours after I wrote it. Someone stopped in my office to discuss Civic Hybrids and my multi-tasking abilities flew out the window. I typed IMA because we were talking about IMA. I thought I should've gone back to change it, but moved on to other things. (Things I actually get paid for
).
My point still stands, though. The
HSD in its
current design does not scale up to what the Tundra would need to be a hybrid with credible towing and hauling capability. How long it takes Toyota to correct that depends on how important they think it is to have Tundra and Sequoia hybrids in their portfolio. It will take money and time.
Peace,
