That ford got f*cked up
The entire cab buckles, plastic **** flying everywhere inside the cab, the airbag just barely opens before the dummy's face smashes the steering wheel, it looks like the front wheel went through the floor board, and it looks like all the bolts holding the seat down broke.

What kind of tires or on the Tundra? Look how much the front one gets smashed in without blowing the tire

Yeah the toyota did well but it doesnt have the weight of any of the other rtuck to stop its only a 7/8 scale fullsize truck anyway. The f-150 was terrible I hope the 04s and up are better. Moral of the story dont wreck your truck.
